this is a weird one, but seriously there are many times
Ill take a right turn, maybe a little faster then normal..
and right after I do it, my trans will slip from 3rd to OD.
I usually have coast for a bit, using no gas, and after a
few seconds, the trans will catch again and off I go.
After I went thru the steps of topping off the fluid on my
trans a few weeks ago, its done it less, but stilll has
happened a few times.

Not to mention, Ive had some overflow of trans fluid on
my driveway several times in the last few weeks. ugh.

As far as the leak, you may have to replace the front seals. Have your tranny serviced, have the filter replaced. It may have lost a bolt, which is why when you turn right, it does that. It may be loose. Be sure they CHANGE your filter....a lot of places will "service" your tranny but not change the filter. This advice is from my husband, who builds transmissions for a living.
