either the transmission oil line to radiater is not tightene or the oil cooler tank at bottom of radiator has a leak
We have a 2003 Dodge Intrepid and it has 249,300 on it. The alternator and radiator have been replaced and a broken wire has been replaced on the transmission. This car has the 2.7L engine.
Not a good situation. Don't drive it! The transmission cooler that is built in to the radiator is bad. The radiator needs to be replaced and the cooling system and transmission needs to be flushed completely. If any coolant is mixed with the transmission fluid it will destroy the transmission in a very short time. I repeat, don't drive it, have it towed to your local garage for repair.
I had my radiator replaced for 2000 Dodge Intrepid. Labor was anywhere from 1.5 to 3 hrs depending on where you go. 60 - 100$/ hour - also depending on where you go. I paid $65X3 = $195 The new radiator was about $175 at parts store. With parts/ labor/ accessories/ taxes it was $433
A/T have a fluid line that runs through the cooling radiator of your car. My best guess is this tube is cracked inside your radiator. The radiator will needs to be replaced. I am not sure, but I believe that automatic transmissions often use engine coolant for cooling, and I suspect that there is a leak in the transmission. Transmission fluid cooling radiators are separate from the engine radiator, and transmission fluid is pumped through them by a pump. They usually are not stock items, but have to be added on. You probably should take the vehicle to a transmission shop, and have them check it out. Coolant will dilute the transmission fluid, and possibly corrode the transmission parts.
The repair on the transmission line will depend on where it is. If the leak is at a coupling then the joint may be able to be tightened. If the line itself if leaking or split then it will have to be replaced.
There could be a blockage in your heater core, I suggest you get it flushed to see if there is flow through it.
The transmission lines on a 2000 GMC Jimmy 4x4 are replaced by disconnecting the lines at the radiator and then the side of the transmission. They are then removed from the bottom of the vehicle and new lines put in place.
I would have to guess that your radiator has a hole in it. Look andd see if your transmission lines go to a tank on the radiator. If this is the case then the radiator will have to be replaced. You transmission line is leaking oil into the coolant. Is there also coolant in the transmission? This is the only way that I can see this happening. Now if you were just having coolant in the transmission then I would say that there was a head gasket issue. well I hope this helps you.
If your heater core wasn't leaking at the time your radiator was replaced , then ( no ) That would be two separate jobs
The speed sensor screws into the side of the trans/axle on earlier Intrepid models, I would assume it's still there on a 99..... Yeah, I found the speed sensor, it was located on the back of transmission. Had little difficulty accessing it, but once replaced it, it fixed the problem.
Your cooling system needs to be bled out real simple process depending on the size of the motor but the only thing is wrong is that once the radiator was removed air got in your cooling lines and needs to be bled out
make sure cooling system is not "airbound" and have to be bled Check to see that radiator hoses are not collapsing when coolant tries to run through them
