The best way to get the Transmission Fluid smell out of your clothes is to wash them in something that cuts through grease. Many mechanics use Oxy-clean to remove these types of stains.

TRANSMISSION!!!!!!!!, TRANSMISSION. First check the level of transmission fluid and if there is fluid in there ( to check fluid warm up engine and check the level with the transmission in PARK and the engine must be running) smell the fluid if it has a burnt smell and is dark then you may have fried your transmission.

What is the clear liquid not water leaking from the bottom of your 2001 Chevy Suburban's Engine?
You engine contains coolant, oil, transmission fluid, P/S fluid, brake fluid, gasoline, & windshield washer fluid. Smell of the fluid, and if it has no smell it is not gasoline. If it is not slick to the touch it is not oil, transmission fluid, or P/S fluid. So that leaves brake fluid, or windshield washer fluid. Brake fluid does have a slight smell, and may be slightly slick, if you pay close attention. Look at the area it is coming from and this is a clue to what is leaking. Try laying a piece of white paper under the vehicle and see what it looks like on paper. Color is a clue.You engine contains coolant, oil, transmission fluid, P/S fluid, brake fluid, gasoline, & windshield washer fluid. Smell of the fluid, and if it has no smell it is not gasoline.

I have an automatic transmission car that just jerks when I press the gas pedal and it will not move. There is also a burning rubber smell. What could be the problem?
It is probably too late at this point, but it may just have been low on transmission fluid. The burned rubber smell is the bands in the transmission slipping because they are either worn out or very low on fluid. Check the fluid level and add if needed. It may not help, but you will only waste $10 adding fluid.
