    HELP! My transmission is leaking. I've got an '01 Tacoma Prerunner V6 auto. Yesterday I drained about 1 quart, added a tranny cooler, and filled her about 2 quarts. Now, she's leaking from the inlet hose of the stock cooler. All the hoses are tight and don't know where the leak is coming from. I used Mobil 1 synthetic, could this be the problem because my tranny requires Dex-III? Please, any help is appreciated. thanks.
