NO I DONT THINK THAT IS NORMAL. SOUNDS LIKE YOUR RADIATOR IS LEAKING COOLANT INTO THE TRANMISSION COOLER.

Re: green transmission fluid

usually, coolant mixing with tranny fluid would be orange in color. Like was mentioned before, you probably need to replace your radiator and have a tranny flush.

Re: green transmission fluid

Raptor Blood huh? If that stuff doesn't meet the Chrysler spec for ATF+3 or ATF+4 then I would stay away from putting that stuff in these transmissions, especially if they are talkiing Dexrom/Mercon compatible stuff. A firmer shift is just what those tranny's need, so the TCM will keep softening the shifts and wear the clutches out sooner.

Re: green transmission fluid

Yeah, that stuff is a Dexron III replacement only. They do make a supplement compatible with all fluids called "Raptor Tamer"..

Re: green transmission fluid

Dexron III is not compatible with Mopar ATF +3 or 4 fluid. It will give you problems, I guarantee you of that.
