My transmission started slipping because my transmission fluid was low from a leak. I drove it for two days after the initial signs of the transmission slipping until I noticed a big puddle of fluid in my friends driveway. I went to fill my transmission with fluid today and whenever I took off the transmission cap, smoke started coming out. It smelt kinda burnt. I emptied five and half quarts of fluid into the transmission (because after that it started overflowing) and drove it home. While I was driving home, I could still smell the burnt transmission fluid (I do not know if it came from air vents or it was stuck on my clothes). Should I be concerned about my transmission being messed up? If so how can I check if I need to fix anything?
P.S. The leak came from the upper transmission line. I recently replaced the radiator and I think I forgot to put the O-ring in, or I had a defective ring. I am currently about to fix that after thanksgiving feast.
