trans fluid level

[dennyo]

i took the car to the local dealer for some work and while it was there i had them install a new filter in the trans. i assumed they knew what they were doing. trying to troubleshoot a noise in front i decided to check the level and lo and behold i ended draining about 5 qts from the pan what is the worst that can happen after driving like this for about 7k miles? thanks dennis

You don't want to know. Just be glad you figured it out and that it's still working.

thanks lan. i can only hope now that there is no permanent damage. i'm guessing the noise up front is related to this. this is what i get for being lazy and not doing the filter change myself.
