The vent location on automatic transmissions has to be located very high in order to keep fluid from leaking out on an incline! The vent is for air not Transmission Fluid. Both a high or low level can cause transmission damage! Low fluid levels cause the transmission pump to cavitate and can damage many components including the transmission pump, clutches/bands, torque converter, and valve body/governor. High fluid levels can cause dragging drive clutches and lock-up torque converter clutch. The clutches drag because the fluid level is above the exhaust passages in the valve body and the spinning clutch drums or torque converter causes fluid to siphon back into the clutch drums from centrifugal force. Valve body exhaust passages are located above the fluid level to break the siphoning effect. Very high transmission fluid levels cause churning of the fluid when it contacts the clutch drums and planetary gear sets and can foam so much that fluid runs out of the air vent. If transmission fluid comes out of the air vent.

What happens if there is too much transmission fluid in 350 old transmission?
Your tranny will start to slip and damage trans. Too much fluid can cause the transmission to blow seals. Drain out the excess, immediately.
What happens when you put too much transmission fluid in your auto transmission?
too much trans fluid can burn up the trans. just drain some out till it is at the correct level
What happens if there is too much oil in the transmission?
Too much transmission fluid in the transmission can cause the transmission seals to leak. The transmission builds up pressure when going down the road. The added pressure can blow up they seals.
What happens when you use too much transmission fluid?
You may damage the transmission seals. Remove enough to get it down to the proper level.
What happens if you put too much transmission fluid in your car?
it foams..can damage...don't...drain and fill to correct level
What happens if too much transmission fluid in a 2003 concord?
overfill vent on top usually blows excess out of trans.
What happens when too much transmission fluid is put into a 2002 Lincoln LS V8?
Changing the transmission fluid in your LS should be performed by a qualified service technician. There is a fairly comprehensive procedure for servicing the transmission and it requires that the fluid be checked hot and cold. Too much fluid in your transmission will cause it to jerk when putting in and out of gear, the shifts will be choppy and it may even feel like its slipping, and finally there is an overflow valve that will cause the excess transmission fluid to leak out and onto the floor beneath the transmission. A qualified service technician will know how much fluid is enough and how to get it out.
Can too much transmission fluid cause it too leak?
Yes.
Can too much transmission fluid cause slipping?
yes and it may cause damage to the transmission if filled too much.
Can stalling be caused by too much transmission fluid?
A vehicle stalling can be just one problem associated with having too much transmission fluid in the vehicle. Excessive transmission fluid can cause the gears in the transmission to heat up and experience damage as well.
What causes a transmission to pump fluid out of dipstick?
If too much transmission fluid is added, or there is something wrong with the pump
Can too much transmission fluid cause the transmission to slip?
No, but too much pressure can cause gasket issues which are even worse.
