If it is an automatic transmission than it should be pink. Dexron tranny fluid is a pink to dark red fluid. If it changes from pink to orange or black, than you need to worry. Pink can also be bad. If your automatic Transmission Fluid is looking like a strawberry milkshake pink, then you may need to overhaul your tranny. The discoloration is due to water getting into the transmission, most of the time it is because there is a broken line where your tranny fluid goes to cool off in the radiator.

How many miles should you change your transmission fluid for Camry 2012?
You do not need to worry about that. Toyota uses stable transmission fluid that can last way pass 150K miles. Unless you have problems with the transmission, you do not need to worry about it.
Can you put dexron 3 and mercon mixed tranny fluid into a 1992 ford explorer?
Dexron is the GM name, while Mercon is the Ford name. Dexron III and Mercon V are essentially the same fluid. They make mixed fluids that are acceptable in either, so I wouldn't worry about it.
Where is the transmission fluid located under the hood of a 1999 Jetta?
i had the same problem. but guess what a 99 jetta doesnt have a dipstick for the tranny fluid it has a sealed lifetime transmission fluid. so you dont have to worry about it. i was going to change it and the mechanic asked "are you sure you want to do that?" i chuckled and asked why and he said that its like 400 dollars to change the fluid. i then choked and walked out the door. lol hope that helps
Purchased 2002 Malibu was told wouldn't have to worry about transmission fluid or transmission problems because the Malibu had none Is it possible to feel the transmission slipping?
There is no place to check the transmission fluid but it certainly does have transmission fluid. Have the transmission serviced at a local specialist. replace the fluid and filter, then the fluid will be completely full. The level is tested from underneath. I have a 2000 Malibu with the 3.1L. If you have the same tranny as me and can't afford to take it to a dealer, the check plug is on the passenger side of the car. It's near the axle on the underside where the tranny wraps around the back of the engine. It's a pipe thread plug and looks like a pointless bolt. Just remember to have the engine running and the tranny in park when you check it. Also, it must be warm. If it is full, fluid will be level to the whole created when you remove the plug. Don't forget to put it back when you are done.
Hello should you be concerned if you are 32 weeks and your amniotic fluid measured only 11.1 centimeters?
You're fine don't worry.
You unplugged 2 wire connectors on the ac pretty much disabling it Should you worry about something happening on a 97 s10 blazer 4.3L?
No, disabling the compressor has no effect on anything else. Why you did this, I don't understand.
What is the lifespan for a 1994 town country transmission?
When it stops working. If you have the fluid and filter serviced on an average of every 32,000 to 36,000 miles, it should last a long time. When it stops shifting properly or starts shifting roughly or not down shifting properly, then I would worry about having it replaced. Not necessarily; I purchased 1993 used and found that it was not shifting past 2nd gear. A Transmission Kit for $35.00 at an auto parts store & additional tranny fluid did the trick so I'd suggest taking it to a tranny specialist that is "referred" to you by a friend so you know you can trust them. However, I will say that with 178000 miles I'm replacing sensors like crazy!

yes you should probably worry.
What happens if you mix transmission fluid and power steering fluid?
Alot of transmission fluids are the same as power steering fluid so I wouldnt worry
What is the problem if your 2002 Altima is shifting hard in first gear automatic transmission?
is this all the time or just when you first start up and drive? transmissions need to heat up just like an engine to work properly. since an auto tranny uses fluid to create the shifting- it is necessary for that fluid to have an amount of pressure behind it. even though tranny fluid, like all hydro fluids, is "non-compressing" and also "non-evaporative" it is still susceptible to changes in temperature and will compress and expand enough to cause a noticeable difference in any machine that relies on it (back-hoes, tranny's, forklifts, etc.). if it's not doing this after driving a few minutes then it's nothing to worry about. would recommend a tranny flush to help alleviate the problem, but it's not necessarily important that you do so right away! if it does this throughout the entire time you're driving then i would recommend a tranny flush and filter change as soon as you can. it's cheaper than rebuilding and is still the most likely culprit. if it owkrs after that then you fixed it for cheap. if not, well, at least you know it's more serious and time to get to a tranny specialist!
Will it hurt my u-joints on my 1995 trans am if i run a stall converter with the stock rear end?
I would worry more about the tranny than the U-joints, a lot of people run a stall converter and don't have a problem but it puts a lot more stress on the tranny.
