      I have a 2001 Saturn sc2 it has a 150,*** miles on it. We were going up a snow covered hill and the wheels were not getting traction I started hearing a loud rubbing like sound so I stopped and then on my way back home the transmission started to slip. The next day the car would not move. Then I checked the fluid and it was empty. I filled it up and it was fine then after a hour trip it was slipping again making a zinging noise. I see fluid everywhere when I look under the car but no leak. I did notice it seems to leak when the car is in drive and moving. So my plan today is to jack it up and get both front wheels off the ground and try to see where its leaking from in drive with wheels moving. Anyone have any ideas of what could be going in? I have checked the transmission lines and they all seem to be good.

        If you see fluid everywhere, then there is a leak. If i had to guess one of your cooler lines blew out

          Check your axle seals.

            You are going to have a hole in your transmission case around your differential. The cross pin that holds your spider gears has come loose from over spinning and made a window in your transmission trying to get out. Very common . Hope every thing works out for you.

                  I think you guys might be right about the hole in the transmission I checked the cooling lines again all look good. I am also thinking thats what that whining sound is when your going 25
