97 Camry Transmission oil.

Today I was driving my Camry and I've been worried about my brake Ligh being on for so long. I hoped it was just the brake fluid being low. I looked under the hood and notices something weird. Their was this dried-up looking tar near the dipstick of the transmittion. I recently got an oil change. So what can be the problem?

If you were a lubricating fluid, and you had been spilled, drained, and leaked out for years

You would get nasty too! :biggrin:


Good time to check the transmission fluid anyway. 90% of transmission failures are caused from bad/low fluid. Every time you overheat transmission fuild, the lifespan halves.
