I had my transmission flushed and changed in Nc then I drove to Texas when I got there it leaked under my car. Had it looked at and no leak. Checked it again thought I had no fluid in car. Had it cheacked once more they told me that I did have some in there but its Clear. I just didnt see it just assumed since I didnt see red it was fine but its red at the tip barely. WHAT DOES IT MEAN.

The first thing to do is get the oil level corrected, to it up with Dextron VI, the oil level may be low since the flush job.

So you are saying that the oil level is correct and that the oil is a clear oil and not red?
