**1992 Toyota 4runner/SR5**
Just recently took a road trip (approx. 300 miles each way) and rather early into the trip (maybe 100 miles?),I noticed the back window getting "dirty", I went to the back to investigate.Much to my dismay,it was (auto) fluid! Ran my finger over it,it appeared to be tranny fluid.Checked under truck,totally "wet". Checked fluid levels,and,sure enough,low ATF fluid!! Added fluid (and sealant,assuming it might be bad gasket),and moved on.Problem continued,added more fluid and finally made it to our destination.Didn't drive for the next 2 days,didn't see any significant leakage,checked level,not great,but not empty.Cleaned back window,and drove approx. 50 or 60 miles,no residue on window,stopped for bathroom break,checked levels,very low.Back on the road for a bit,back window "dirty" again!! No significant issues with tranny or temps,A/T light came on once,but went away. PS level was very low as well. A friend said I may need to clean the "tranny screen". Can anybody help? Thanks
