Today me and my brother were under my truck looking at how bad my exhaust really is and we noticed a hole on the bottom of the trans (behind the oil drain plug, closer to the rear of the truck) can someone just inform me if there is supposed to be a cover over it or if thats how its meant to be?


Also when I hit my brakes it sounds like there is air being released. The brakes work fine, i was told to replace my master cylinder, before i do that i just wanted to check and make sure that is probably what the issue is.

 

Its just a drain hole, there should be a rubber plug in it.

 

there is supposed to be a plug. there not to sure on the break problem.

 

ok thanks guys ill have to swing by napa tomorrow and any advice on the brakes from anyone else?

 

If you are hearing air when you apply the brakes, I would guess that the booster is the cause. Check the hose going to the booster for a split. If the hose is good, then its probably the booster. The hole is suppose to have a rubber plug in it. The hole is there to drain the fluid from the converter. If you were to spin the converter, you will find a drain plug in it.
