Tranny Fluid In radiator.
My friend has a with 90,000 on it (He drives alot) and I went over there today and the dexcool looks like a strayberry shake. We also knoticed the tranny was 3 quarts low on fluid. The dexcool smells like tranny fluid as well. Hes taking it in tomorrow but my guess is that the tranny cooler inside the radiator busted. What do you guys think?

maybe you'll get off easy with a pressurized flush/fluid change....
