The a/c condensor is up front and mounted low you could have ruptured the line. It will stop after it lost all its pressure. Also there is a vacuum plastic can(tank) mounted under splash shield also.

Testimonial: "The leak is behind the oil pan but before axel shaft can tell what it is some took my Manuel out of my van?"

    Vacuum leak will suck in air from the motor. If you are leaking fluid then it could be transmission line, power steering lines. If hit hard enough I've seen the transmissions crack the case. You should have it put on a lift and checked by a qualified mechanic.

When starting it makes a popping sound.

You have to find out where the popping sound is coming from, it can be a bad intake or exhaust valve or bad lobe on the cam, Ignition timing, rich or lean fuel mixture, or just a simple vacuum leak,
check all the hoses on your engine, and listen for hissing while it runs, vacuum leaks are often found by hearing a hissing, even when the brake booster leaks and you hear it hissing by your feet while you drive,,
Good luck, if you find anything and have more questions, leave me a comment, I'll help you!

My car shuts down when i hit brakes i have new battery.

It may be a ruptured diaphram in the brake booster. It is loosing vaccum inside the booster, and it stalls the engine because vaccum comes from the engine manifold while running. Good-Day! But check the hoses to booster for a leak first! If the booster is bad. Push on the pedal with your hand. and you will hear a hissing sound from booster if bad.

I have a 2006 H3 and I just noticed red fluid leaking from the front end yesterday but today there is no leak. I did hear a strange hissing or whistling like sound when I accelerated. Is this somethin

Most likely one of the transmission cooling lines which go from the transmission to the side of one or the radiator expansion tanks has rusted through. It is making that noise because you are driving it with no transmission fluid in it. If you continue to drive it you will break the trasmission.

Transmission no pressure

Nope, no positives. It does sound like the pump has failed. If the stop leak didn't help seal any internal seals that may have failed, it looks like the transaxle will have to come out for repairs or another replacement.
I don't think the torque converter ever makes noise when bad.
I would think your diagnosis of a bad pump is correct, given no movement of fluid in the cooler lines. Kudos for checking the lines-cool idea, I never thought of that.

Similar hissing sound

THE HISSING SOUND IS THAT THE A/C SYSTEM IS LOW ON REFRIGERANT..YOU MORE THAN LIKELY HAVE A LEAK IN SYSTEM..THESE VEHICLES HAD SOME ISSUES WHERE THE LINES GOING TO THE REAR EVAPORATOR ARE LEAKING WHERE THE LINES GO THROUGH THE FLOOR INTO THE HOUSING..YOU NEED TO HAVE SYSTEM LEAK CHECKED
