Had to replace tranny & radiator. Cracked cooler, coolant in tranny.
Before leaving shop had "low coolant" display. Shop says it's a "pressure" situation and will be OK. 2 days later still a prob.
Brought it back, shop says ooops. Leaking heater hose.
Not stocked, ordered, told to keep eye on coolant level.
3 days later coolant in expansion tank looked funky. Pink.
Opened radiator. Strawberry milkshake!
Diagnosis: Must not have gotten all the ATF out of the cooling sys! It looked like more than "a little" to me. (They did, and charged for, a "hot flush).
QUESTION.
What effect did the ATF have on my cooling sys.
and did it ruin my hoses.
What questions should I ask and what responses should I expect?
