itsdave Posted September 14, 2007 Report Posted September 14, 2007 Hey guys, I wanted to know how much the going rate was on a replacement of tranny cooler lines. I was pullin out of my girl's driveway when I heard a rumbling noise when I gave it some gas. I look out and theres a line of tranny oil behind me. Anyway I look under the hood and i see the crap leaking out out of one of the lines.... Considering I only drove about 500 feet until i realized what was wrong, do you think I couldve damaged anything? FYI - i have a 97 lumina, 3.1 with 150k on it. Thanks Quote
slick Posted September 14, 2007 Report Posted September 14, 2007 Most likely, no. I would repair the line, and go. Actually.... while you have that much tranny fluid out, it would be a great time to drop the pan and replace the filter. Re-use the stock gasket (if its the rubber with metal rings, it is meant to be re-used, cork gaskets leak). Quote
Psych0matt Posted September 14, 2007 Report Posted September 14, 2007 my first tranny died because of that happening, although I was on an on ramp revving it to like 4500 trying to go. replaced the tranny, and had the line come off twice again at low speeds before I decided to get a new hose and clamp and fix it right. no problems with that, only when i was trying to get on the freeway the first time when i didnt know what was going on. 99.9% you didnt damage anything Quote
