Transmission whining, and slipping

Van shudders in reverse backing up hill or in gravel. Two dealers said they all do it. I paid to have the trans oil and filter replaced even though the tech said the fluid was clean. I drove on a 900 mile trip, trans worse and leaked. Left axial seal leaking. Tech found while checking shudder in trans. Had 3 days and still leaked when I got it home. Other dealer found oil was too high and flowing from overflow port. Seal was not bad.
