I PUT A LITTLE BIT OF TRANSMISSION FLUID IN MY CAR WITHOUT CHECKING THE LEVEL. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 45 MINUTES IT STUDDERED A COUPLE OF TIMES THEN STARTING SMOKING. THEN THE SMOKING STOPPED I WAS ABLE TO FINISH MY DRIVE BUT I DONT KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE.

Start by checking the fluid level. With the engine at operating temperature, at idle, move the shifter through all the gears ending in "Park". With the engine running, check the fluid level. If you have too much, you have to drain some out through the drain plug, under the driver side.
