Question Tranny fluid

smell after driving. Stinks when I get out of my car, on a scale of 1-10 its like a 7-8. Is my tranny going? It's not slipping as of yet and this is my 3rd one. 69K on it (literally).

Thanks guys.

if it smells it might be your catalytic converter may need to be cleaned out

Judging by the high level of stink, I don't think its the transmission. Tranny problems usually come with a level 3-4 stink.
