Any suggestions?

With only 35K miles, she didn't need all that equip. replaced every 3K miles. Especially air & fuel filter.
Leave the transmission alone until it's due!! You start removing parts, you're opening yourself up for leaks.

I change my oil every 10K miles with synthetic. Haven't lost an engine in 25 years.

Even though the air filter was filthy and it smelled so bad? She complained last summer that the a/c smelled funny when she turned it on through out the summer. When we removed the air filter, it smelled musty/moldy. She said that is the same smell she had in the a/c last summer.

There might be a cabin filter for the AC. The air filter in the engine has nothing to do with air entering the cat.

There on the floor was the bottle, with the top on it, no oil.



could You have the carpets cleaned ? @ one of those places that details cars ?


maybe put down a couple of newspapers and something heavy on top to press the papers down hard, keep changing until no more oil ....

We are even changing the brake pads, and it still has more than half the pad on them, but they are 4 years old and she wants them replaced along with the transmission fluid. I am very disappointed and plan to check all her receipts from the dealership to see if they've been charging her for the air filter.



I believe the Trans Fluid is a 50k Mile service .... or if it is really dark or smells burnt ....
