What a terrible weekend.

I had my transmission flushed and refilled with synthetic ATF. My mechanic flushed it first with regular ATF and then proceeded to install the new filter and gasket and put in the synthetic ATF (Mobil 1).

The car never leaked anything out of the transmission. When the car was on the lift there was only a bit of ATF seeping out of the drain plug. I figured maybe that's because the Trans was a little overfilled. I have brought the level down but I still see drips on the ground.

Now I also have a leaking diesel line above the rear subframe (driver's side).......... This is great..

Any ideas why? Did I do something really dumb by using Synthetic ATF?...

The transmission now shifts perfectly though...

Thanks
