The best way to tell is by checking the fluid. Check the color and odor of the fluid. bright red is OK ,and should smell like unused fluid. A brown color with a burnt smell indicates wear, no good. Drop the pan and see if there are metal filings in the fluid, no good. Slippage can just be an indicator of a band adjustment, and noises that you think are coming from your transmission can actually be coming from your differentials, u - joints, transfer case ..etc. In other words, sounds can be transmitted from one point to another, like putting your ear on a train track when the train is miles away...
