Tranny leaking fluid or burning it

[Brownie Mobile]

So as of late my tranny has been losing fluid not very rapidly but every 200-300 miles ill start getting that late shifting and unwillingness to go into gear without reving up the engine, whats causing this you guys think? I can't find a leak or any wet spots anywhere ( but obviously i cant see very well on the top of the tranny) it's a C5 with 102k on it, every time i notice it i put about 1/2 - 3/4 of a quart in and no more problems for a while, this really concerns me because i hate having to rev up the engine then it flops into gear really roughly just cant be good for the internals, thanks, Brownie.

Have you checked the vac modulator for fluid?

Where might i find that did a little bit of searching couldn't find anything.

On the trans. It will have a vacuum line on it. One that is probably full of tranny fluid.

here is a post to look at. if you are burning tranny oil, plumb in a clear fuel filter into the air line and watch for red.... this might help.

Alright i wasnt sure about the exact one you were talking about but i started unplugging vacuum lines and broke 2 rotted hoses off in the process, but none of them had fluid in them any ideas now? Oh and also im not getting any white smoke like that.
