Default Local mechanic opinion

Said it’s the transmission. Said it sounds hollow because it’s half full.

For anyone following along, pictured above is a good pic of the engine oil pan on our cars and the drain plug can be clearly seen.

There is a dip stick for both the engine oil and transmission fluid to check your levels on the top side of the engine.

Not trying to be captain obvious and it shouldn't have to be said but I'm trying to raise the bar of "mechanics" everywhere. Haha 🧐. 🤔. 🤓

Margate, you're just playing into this troll, feeding their ego. It's a reward encouraging them to do it more
