fluid coming out of the vent
What happens when the filter stops up? Trying to find out what is going on with our transmission. When it gets hot and under strain we do not have any gears. But if you shut it off and let it cool down it will start working again. Then you can drive for awhile then it will start again. Anyone have any idea?

Re: transmission filter
That sounds just like the filter plugging. A transmission filter basically plugs for 2 reasons.
1: Something is failing rapidly internal, which creates excessive metal and/or clutch material to plug the filter. You can renew the filter but the glory will be short lived. Usually you drive a 1/2 mile then it plugs, then you let sit awhile, then you go another 1/2 mile, plugs and so on. 2: Normal wear and tear with many years and thousands/millions of miles on it and the filter has never been changed. Hopefully this would be your case  Drop the pan to inspect condition and if its at a "reputable" transmission shop they "should", know what is, for the most part, going on.
