HI I NOTICED THE OTHER DAY WHILE DROPPING MY WIFE OFF AT SCHOOL THAT WHEN IM AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND THEN WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS THE CAR GIVES A A NICE SIZE JUMP. ( A BOOMP SOUND)
I DID BOTTOM OUT THE FIRST 2 DAYS I BROUGHT MY WIFE TO HER NEW COLLEGE BECAUSE I DID NOT NO THAT THERE WERE TWO POTHOLES SIDE BY SIDE FROM EACHOTHER EXACTLY 1 FOOT AFTER THE SPEED BUMP SO THEY CANT BE SEEN IF YOU DONT ALREADY NO ABOUT THEM. SO YESTERDAY I LOOKED UNDER THE CAR TO SEE IF I BROKE OR CRACKED A MOTOR MOUNT BUT I GOT SIDE TRACKED BECAUSE I SEEN ATLEAST 6 OZ OF TRANNY FLUID (PINK LIQUID) COMING FROM 4 DIFFERENT SPOTS FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY RADITOR. I DONT NO IF ITS MY TRANNY IT SELF OR JUST A LINE THAT CRACKED FROM BOTTOMING OUT OR THE MOTOR MOUNT AND A TRANNY FLUID LINE. I DONT NO WHERE TO LOOK AS THIS IS MY FIRST 1988 BONEVILLE SSE. 75,528 MILES AND STILL GOING. I LOVE MY BONNIE. I THINK EVEN MOR THEN MY WIFE... .

You only have to press this key

once and that problem goes away.


Any transmission leaks are serious and should be dealt with immediately. It'* most likely a tube to the radiator got tweaked when you bottomed out and it split. It'* cheap to fix, unless you're paying someone else to do it. The boomp you describe sounds like a motor mount has separated. Also something that needs to be fixed soon.

thanks everyone i replaced the tranny fluid hose thats under my radiator which was rusted so cracked easy. fixed that problem for $68.
next i had to replace both front and rear motor mounts for a total of $75 for both. they were badly rusted and trashed. car is sweet with new interior and paint and sound/ video system but its frame is not in the best of shape as she sat for 3 years out side a family members house.. but hey 75,000 original miles and $1000 of work later she is back to her original roaring, cloud floating self again.. wow i love these cars.. i al,most forgot how good they drive.. motor mounts make a big difference.... thanks ya,ll.
