Hello all!! I've had such success with this site. I thank everyone for their help. So, not too long ago I developed a tick in my engine. Kept hearing it was my lifters and no big issue. I had my husband change my oil and he ended up adding 7 quarts. I drove for quiet a while and my engine started to knock terribly. Had my mechanic drain it and add the correct amount. Which I think is about 5 quarts...Then I started to notice my transmission oil leaking slowing and now my truck seems to jerk when I accelerate. I would absolutely HATE to have replace my tranny due to no fluid. Is there a dipstick on my 2001 HSE 4.6? Where I can check and add fluid instead of having to take it into the dealer or another mechanic? Thanks !! Also...the tick I hear...is there anyway to get rid of that? I switched to a thicker oil 20w and no luck at the ticking sound going away. It's not super loud and hasn't affected my performance I just want to go back to normal.
