Hi all, having a problem with my 2000 Blazer. Put it into reverse to park
yesterday after driving about 20 miles and it just slipped, didn't even feel
like it tried to move. Took 3 quarts of fluid to bring up to full mark, put
still slipping. Any ideas? Any help is apprieciated. Wayne

3 quarts low, must have some leaks, but if it still slips, sounds like it
will have to come out, is the fluid burnt?

Pulled the pan. Fluid is like new, light red color, no burnt smell and the
pan was clean. I picked up a trans from a local guy. Now all the fun of
installing it...lol.
Thanks for your input. Wayne
