| Mar 2017146287 miUS $3000 | The car's transmission began to slip, I checked the fluid and ended up adding 2 quarts, three weeks later the same thing. When the car was parked no fluid could not be seen leaking. After driving the car, you could smell the fluid burning. I took the car in and the high-pressure line of the transmission had developed a pin hole leak, so as the pressure in the transmission increased the car's speed the fluid poured out of the car. My Mechanic had the hole in the line welded closed and the problem has gone away. The VSA light and the Check engine light came, when this happen cruise control would cut off. I assumed it was the timing sensor, I took the car in and the mechanic said the oil pan was dry and that the timing chain was stretched and time tensioner was shot as well and the cam for the valves were bent. It needed a major engine overhaul. All was repaired and replaced Car needed Brakes Rotors and Calipers The High pressure line to the transmission developed a pin hole leak, so the transmission would only leak when the car's transmutation was engaged. to correct it my Mechanic welded the holes closed and it seems to be holding up. | ||
