1st time 4runner owner bad tranny
This is my first time dealing with a transmission problem, nonthelessa 4 runner tranny.
Would anyone care to fill me in on what model transmission I have?
And should I flat out replace it or send it in for a rebuild?
It seems that the 98 I bought off of craigslist may have been too good of a deal...
I have a 2.7 rwd with an automatic transmission that is leaking. It's been leaking for a while and in my inexperience with transmissions, I asked my dad about it. He said it was engine oil despite the oil level not dropping.
I took his word for it.
Anyhow, now the tranny makes strange sounds like a cd rom drive scratching a disc.
Ideas on my next move?
