i drive a 2000 eclipse gt v6 3.0. it started off when i was heading home from school and i hit a little bump (crossing over another road) and i felt a little kick. (it felt as if i didn't balance gas and clutch evenly) and than my transmission went out (feels like when your clutch is out). pushed it into a parking lot and popped the hood. everything looks normal (no leek or anything) than turned the car off, waited about 2 min and i looked under the car, there was a small puddle of (what smell like transmission oil) oil laying right under the transmission and engine. called the tow truck and towed it home. (while on the tow truck, the oil started dripping a lot)
i asked some people at work and they think its probably the rear main seal that cracked or popped lose.
if the transmission it self is about to go out, wouldn't you hear some grinding nose or clicking nose as if the teeth in the transmission were slipping over each other?
i didn't hear anything, the transmission just stop working
anyone have any ideas? reps for help
