Transmission

RE: Transmission
For a possible cheap fix, check the transmission fluid coolant hoses/pipes going from the tranny to the radiator. A broken line will blow all the fluid out in seconds. Otherwise, there are probably some bad seals which may or may not require transmission removal.

RE: Transmission
Ok the transmission is probably not as bad as you think. If it just started dumping fluid and you where not running the crap out of it then it is probably a cooler line as said above, possible the dip stick came lose, or the out put seal. Most shops are going to tell you it needs to be pulled since you are young and they see money signs. Get under her and take a look for your self. If its leaking that bad you should be able to find the problem your self and go from there. You may save your self a lot of money in the long run
