October 2007, the automatic transmission (4 speed) fluid is draining into the radiator and spilling out of the overflow tank.
Is the water also leaking into the transmission? I have a new radiator to install, but must the transmission be flushed as well?
Has been a dependable car, no other problems except normal maintenance items.
YES!!! Flush your system thoroughly as trans fluid will cause issues in your cooling system. Also, flush your transmission as well as antifreeze in it will cause even more issues!
That's what happened to me, but my transmission blew; thank god it was under warranty.
