Hello,
I have a 2003 Dakota, 4.7, 4x4, auto trans (it’s not a Ram, but I think the engine/trans is the same as some Ram models). It has 165k and the fluid and filter were changed at 80k and 140k. I will go a week or two and the transmission fluid level is fine, then I’ll check it a few days later and it will be down a quart. I can’t find any external leaks, the transmission fluid looks good (bright red), the coolant looks good (green) in over flow and under the cap and the level of fluid in transfer case is good (not over full). Any ideas where it is going?
