i believe back a few months ago i read a thread about a transmission problem where you would find some gunk on the cap of the oil filler hole. Did i read this or did i dream it?

If in fact there is such a problem can someone point me in the right direction. Tried to search but had no luck.

Oil filler hole is not really near any transmission parts.

Only 2nd gen transmission issue I have heard of is where due to the fact that transmission cooling lines enter into the radiator some radiators have had a failure allowing coolant to enter into the transmission.

Found by having pepto-bismal looking transmission fluid and bad shifting in the transmission.

Fixed by replacing radiator and flushing transmission several times.

Avoided by doing transmission cooler bypass mod.
