Noticed my car began slipping and jerking when I moved from park to
Drive as well as moving from a red light. The next morning noticed fluid under the car which was transmission fluid. Checked fluid it was empty we put some inn it slowly leaked
u could probably drive the car 20 or 30 minutes before it would jump gears jerking an making a weird noise. Checked fluid an it would b empty under the car u could see it coming out. The seal on pan was replaced an filter an within hours its like nothing was replaced pouring fluid to the ground skipping I don't know much about cars an I can't afford a repair shop so what can I look for that may be the cause of this

All I can tell you is that if you cannot afford a repair shop to resolve this leak, then you just need to park the vehicle because if you continue doing what you have been so far, the cost of your failure is going to balloon into thousands of dollars. There is no magic quick fix and don't even think about adding sealers as that can do some serious damage in itself.

Hopefully you havent burned up the transmission from lack of fluid. You need to find the leak sounds like a good sized leak. Where is the fluid coming from?Thats the first thing we need to figure out?
