Re: transmission prob

10w-30 is motor oil. Your transmission needs a specific transmission fluid that is completely different from motor oil; probably Dextron 2 or Dextron 3. If the car won't move at all your only hope is to have it towed to a shop that has a machine to do a complete transmission flush of all the fluids, and have that done. It will cost about $100 plus the tow. Keep your fingers crossed that it works, but I'm rather skeptical. At this point it's your only hope.

Mike

Re: transmission prob

well i'm gonna have a guy that does cars come out and do that, but after we do that step could i put new atf in it? and would that be the reason y smoke comes out of my car becouse of the oil. i hope that ths will work. and like b4 i put oil in on the road it would switch 2 the next gear like i had 2 press hard on the gas and the rpm would go up 2 like 6 or 7000, does that mean i ned a tune-up as well or what would couse that problem?
