| Description of the problem | Truck started not engaging in reverse at around 50,100 miles. Took my truck to larry h miller nissan where i paid 157. 00 to have them tell me that my transmission was over full. They pulled about 3 liters of extra fluid from tranny. The fluid appears darker but thinner than normal. They said the pump is probably blown due to excessive pressure from the added fluid. This transmission has never had service of fluid added. No sure at this point if this is a problem with radiator cross contamination but about 3 yeas ago my heater stopped working. I checked my radiator to find it several quarts low. I'm not sure i want to spend any more money with anyone, especially nissan, to have this looked further into, but i would bed that it is a cross contamination issue. |
