All the fluid leaked out of the transmission of my 95 Z28 and when I pour more fluid into it it just runs back out. Does this mean I need a new Transmission?

Where is it leaking from. It could be a damaged fluid line going to the transmission cooler or the cooler could be damaged. Could even be a damaged transmission sump.

    You willl have to raise the car and put it on jack stands. Crawl underneath with a flashlight. Look for a hole in the transmssion pan. The cooler will be near the front of the car, probably close to the radiator. It will look like a small radiator. Look for leakage from there and also the two metal lines going into it. Some cars will only have the two lines going into the radiator itself instead of a separate cooler. Check the fittings for leakage.. Also check the front and back of the transmission. That's where the seals are and is a prime place for leakage.

I think I have a vacuum modulator problem on my 95 z28!!

A vacuum modulator problem can cause various issues in your 1995 Chevrolet Camaro Z28, such as harsh shifting, delayed shifting, or transmission slipping. If you suspect that you have a vacuum modulator problem, you should check the vacuum modulator and its related components for any signs of damage or wear.
The vacuum modulator is located on the transmission and is usually connected to a vacuum line. You should inspect the vacuum line and the modulator for any cracks, leaks, or damage that may cause the vacuum pressure to fluctuate.
If you find any issues with the vacuum modulator or its related components, you should replace them. It is also recommended that you check the transmission fluid level and condition, as low or dirty fluid can also cause shifting problems. If the problem persists after replacing the vacuum modulator, you may need to have your transmission inspected by a professional mechanic.

I have a 1999 GMC Suburban 1500 that started having front end popping/clicking yesterday. Tonight went to back into my parking spot, pulled forward to adjust and it did not move? I can only pull it forward...

Not CV. Red means transmission fluid. On front frame probably means you have a transmission cooler which is a smaller separate radiator that keeps the transmission fluid cool. That's probably where the leak is or the line leading to it. Check your transmission fluid (it has a dipstick) and make sure it shows at the proper level on that dipstick. Add transmission fluid by pouring into same tube dipstick is in. Drive to nearest shop and repair leak.

Started my car and i believe transmission fluid pouring out

Well, there are transm. fluid cooling lines in that area, down kind of low on the car, running from the transmission to the fluid tank or reservoir on the radiator. And when the engine is running, the transmission pump is running, so the lines would be pushing fluid. One is a line bringing fluid to the radiator, and the other is a return line. If one of these lines broke, it will need replacing. You will have to find the leak and see what's up.

Transmission is not "engaging" at all- fluid

I'm guessing you mean transmission fluid poured out? That would certainly explain why it won't move. The most common leak point for older automatic transmission cars are the transmission cooler lines. They run from the radiator to the transmission (the cooler is built into the radiator) and they are made of steel so they are prone to rust. I would start looking there. The other leak points would be the lower pan, axle seals, and where the case bolts together. Take a look at the radiator and you should see some small steel lines bolted to the radiator. Follow them and look for heavy rust that is wet with fluid.

How to check manual transmission fluid level on 2005 chevy aveo

oh the side of your transmission, above the halfway point, there will be a plug that you can open. (don't open the plug on the bottom of the transmission as that's the drain plug). When you open the plug, some fluid should leak out meaning it's at the right level. If nothing leaks out, pour some fluid in until it starts to run out and then replace the plug.
