Hello everyone.
I flushed my tranny fluid on Sunday and everthing went very smoothly. Thanks for all of the very helpful responses to my posts. Something troubles me though. I've driven the car about 200 miles since then and can smell a burning smell when pulling into my garage. I don't understand where this could be coming from. The flush was done correctly. I used Mobil 1 synthetic ATF. There are absolutely no leaks anywhere. The fluid level is correct and is red. Is this just some spilled fluid burning off or what?? Transmission is shifting better than ever. Still, you understand my concern......

Thanks

Ryan

    It is probably just some residue cooking off. Since there are no leaks, I would only be concerned if it continues. You could go to a car wash and get an undercarriage spray just to wash some of the bottom of the car. I would be careful about spraying the engine from above, though, it could do more harm than good.
