I sucked alot of water into my Transmission. I took it to Buy rite and they flushed it several times. They also put lucas in it. It then started leaking. I took it to another place and they put in a new filter and flushed it again. Then it blew a front seal. Took it back to the garage and they dropped the tranny and put a new front seal rear seal and motor seal. She is not leaking now but the Garage says I only have about a month and I will need to put a new tranny in her cause the transmission pump is going out...... What else can I expect to happen from getting water in the transmission?

You should expect it to not work right. lolol.. Sounds like you should have just had it replaced/rebuilt, instead of spending all that money on getting seals and flushes done.

definitely, do not put no more money in that transmission. if they said that only the pump is bad, then find a holdover AW4 (since you said pump, i'm presuming its automatic) from a jy and then you can actually replace the pump on your own pretty cheap. while you're under, check your flexplate, torque converter, u-jounts etc.

I thought at first that the guy that put the seals in may be lying to me so he can get more business.... I need a 2nd opinion I think
