I have a 1999 Buick Le Sabre that is pumping pinkish/milky colored transmission fluid out of what I assume is a pressure relief valve dealing with the transmission. What would be causing this.

I don't have any dash lights that comes on indicating I have a problem. Just afraid too drive it due too pumping the fluid out so fast. Any help would be appreciated.

It's obvious to me that you have a ruptured transmission cooling line inside the radiator where the water and transmission fluid are mixing together giving it the tale-tale pinkish white and frothy appearance. You will have to replace the radiator and flush out your transmission and replace the filter and fluid with all new . Failure to do a complete cleanout will result in transmission death in as little as a couple hundred miles (200 or less) This answer provided by Millerwright1@Yahoo.com

I have a 2005 Buick LeSabre, it ran hot one morning and i heard this clicking noise coming from the engine like the valves were'nt getting oil or something. Now when a crank it the engine runs like it has a bad plug or two and there is constant bubbling into the water reservoir while it's running. I have been told that it's a blown head gasket and am asking around too see if that's what it is or could it be something else, the constant bubbling in the water reservoir is what has got me? but anyone that could give me some suggestions on what it is would be much appreciated. 4 Answers
