Impala Issues

Hey All,

Just want to start off by saying what a great forums, very imformative.

Now I have a few issues I need some guidance on. First let me say that I recently had my transmission fixed, I had the adaptive shift error and had to get the tranny rebuilt, they also did upgrades on it. That cost me about $1800 (warrenty covered $600).

Now I seem to be having a oil leak, at first I thought it was maybe a transmission leak as I was told to watch out for them. So I took it back to the tranny place and they hoisted up the car and took a look, it looks like the oil is coming from the oil plug as the tranny is all clean and dry. So I took it to Jiffy Lube as that is where I get my oil changes done, they took a look and said the plug is tight and so is the oil filter, I was a bit low on oil so they topped me off and gave me a new filter free of charge.

I was hoping that was it, but today I saw some more oil on the driveway. I haven't crawled under to see if the oil pan is wet again as it's dark right now. But I'm wondering if there is something I can check or look at. Any tips would be appreciated.

Also, it seems that my climate control doesn't like to change to Panel/Floor mode, I did take the dash apart to change the bulbs in the control so I may have pinched a hose or something but the panel and floor work find if I use either, its just the combo that doesn't work. Could the selector know be messed?

Thanks,
Michael
