Leaking issues in my 200 4R - any gurus available?

Yep, I know how that goes.

The smoke from the pipes could be just from the fluid pushing out and not from the trans being hot was my point.
I didn't know if you knew it was a possibility instead of thinking it was hot and that was why it was pushing fluid and smoking off the pipes.
Kinda like the, did the car overheat and THEN coolant blew out, or did the coolant get pushed out and THEN it overheated? question. :D

You know people with computers tell me all the time that "It worked fine until this happened" and I tell them if they have ever gone out and gotten in their car and the battery was dead, it's kind of the same thing.
Almost everything works fine until it doesn't. :D

I use that exact same line when customers tell me there car never did that before. Everything works until it doesn't. Hopefully I'll get a chance to try it out this weekend. There's a lot of rain in the forecast for the next week.
