Trannys are a weakness of mine. Theres only very few things you can do to a tranny to maintain it. Its actually a very simple contraption but can be tough to diagnos.

If I were you Id at least check the fluid level to make sure its ok. You must have the car on a flat surface, with the engine RUNNING. Pull the dipstick out and see if you need fluid.

Another thing to look for is to see if your fluid is dirty. Tranny fluid DOES NOT LUBRICATE, it cleans and pressureizes.When you pull out the dipstick, wipe whats on the stick on the back of your hand. If it looks more of a dirty brown (as opposed to a nice red color) then its dirty. and needs to be changed. Trans missions have a filter inside when you drop the tranny pan down. over many miles that filter needs to be changed.

Honestly that may or may not fix the problem. Trannys are very tricky and there are several sensors that run the thing. If it only happens once in a while, Id say its nothing to worry bout right now. But its not gonna get better on its own. So the longer you wait the more damage you can do to your tranny.

That makes sense. I took it to a shop and replaced the crank seal, then they told me my speed sensor was leaking and should be replaced so I gave them the OK to do it. I never had any probs with it until now....I still see trans fluid on the ground and sometimes my speed gauge will randomly drop to 0 and when it does it feels like I only have 1 gear. I took it back once already and its still having the same problems. Blah

I really curious to know what happened with your hot rod. You get it fixed? You better have grown a pair of balls and stood up and handled business like I told your punk kilik ass to!!

Well since they already tried to fix it twice I don't even want to deal with them. The speed sensor problem has only happened a couple random times and I know they're gonna say "well we cleaned it up a little, seems to be working fine now" so I don't know maaan...i was just talking with Krayzie about how we don't trust our cars down to socal
 
well so long as the leaks stopped that you paid someone to fix is taken care of. If it happens more then you need to get ahold of the Bureau of Automotive Repair. The longer you wait tho, the harder it will be to get it fixed!!

From what I've read online it seems people think it's easier to just remove the entire front bumper.
