yes the tranny fluid is very foamy,the problem that i was telling you about where it felt like i was driving with my foot on the brake and she was holding back was the 2 front brake calipers,had a friend of mine do the fr rotors and pads as i never had the time and he told me he tightened the caliper bolts with a johnson bar and the bolts were on nice and tight so i took the bolts back out and retightened with just a regular 15 mm wrench and now the car is fine,think they were on so tight the calipers could move at all causeing her to stick
