Hi!
i replaced my ATF a few days ago. i pulled out the dipstick to check the oil level today and i saw white foam on it. has water got into it? wat shall i do? should i replace the fluid again?

I'd take it to a transmission shop and have it flushed and the fluid changed. Your cooler may have a leak.

The transmission cooler is inside the transmission and can leak. You may need a new radiator and a good transmission flush.
