I need advise about transmission oil spitting from the vent tube? The end is under the seat. 2000 x-1, 34,000 miles.
We drained exactly one quart from the transmission.

Check the oil level in the oil tank, see if it has dropped. Usually oil spitting from the trans vent tube is caused by a leaking/failing crankshaft oil seal. The primary then overfills, flows out the vent tube.
