    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    They actually took a lot off of the price since they were just working on it recently. Only charged me for parts and half the labor. $265. HOWEVER, now it's leaking even worse! I just checked it cold, and the coolant is over half gone, and there is a HUGE puddle on the floor. I am SO done with...

    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    And I believe we have a winner - it appears that the auto transmission cooling lines are failing. I haven't seen it myself, but they said that they are seeing leaking from around where the rubber is crimped. There goes another 400 bucks. Stupid dealer-only parts!!!

    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    Thanks - I'll have to check on the nut tomorrow. It's frustrating because it's so fraking cold out that I can't really tell anything. Hard to tell if the fluid slick or not when there's so much snow melting down there. It doesn't have much of an odor to it either, again maybe due to all the...

It's really cold here right now and I hate to try to clean it off when it's this cold out. Might have...

    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    They told me they did. As soon as they spotted the non-HOAT they said "we gotta get this out of here and flush it." So like I said, that should have been okay for the last 3-4 years, but who knows how long they had the wrong stuff in there before that. I might have to give the dealer who sold it...

    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    Thank you for the quick replies! 75k miles, which worried me. That seems pretty low to be having transmission issues, especially on a Jeep. The transmission work does have a warranty on it, but like I said, I'm just leery of needing that kind of repair on a relatively low mile Jeep. I know...

    Transmission and radiator issues - need advice

    Hello all - Recently had some work done on my '06 Renegade. Transmission and heater issues. Water pump replaced and now heat seems ok. Doesn't seem to get as hot as fast, but it's also colder out than it has been for a long time. Might just be expecting too much, because it does get very hot...
