What would cause a 2001 Dodge 1500 4WD to just out of the blue, start blowin tranny fluid back out the fill tube?

Asked by EStone May 19, 2014 at 06:17 PM about the 2001 Dodge RAM 1500 SLT Quad Cab 4WD

Question type: General

Tranny was fine going down the road. After stopping and starting to take off from a stop sign, fluid began blowing out the fill tube! Tranny was just rebuilt a little over a year ago.

I was not hauling anything! yes, the fluid was cool when they rebuilt the tranny.

The trans is building up pressure. Possibly to overheating but also could be you need a new filter in it. Possibly check the governor pressure sensor.
