Ok last weekend me and a buddy of mine changed my damaged gasket from the trans pan.
I been noticing recently that a slight show of smoke is coming from the vents. Ill turn on the vents and cloud of smoke comes out quickly then stops. (and it does smell like trans fluid)

I know when we did the gasket it did get a bit messy and got on the exhuast and some other places.

Is the smoke through the vents because of the whatever existing oil is burning away? Cause im somewhat worried. I hope its not another issue.

Thanks in Advance

It's a possibility but the trans is under the car. The fresh air intake is on top of the car. I would be looking more into heater core starting to leak or maybe a valve cover gasket leak. Are you seeing anything on the ground?. Is it more noticable sitting still or while driving? :shrug:
