Can water get into the 5-speed transmissions?
Today CarMax tells me they've found rust inside my tranny and that this is a possible reason that the transmission failed (2003 MC). I had no transmission problems until they replaced a shifting bracket, then, instant lock up of the tranny.
Can water get inside these tranny's and if so how, and could it be enough to damage it to the point of gears grinding and shifting problems?
My guess is there trying to find any reason not to cover this under warranty.
