What kind of damage can this cause and what should be documented as cause?
What is your question?
took car in for oil change and filter replacement, returned home and immediate signs of significant leak on driveway, car begins to lose power when accelerating then start having issues shifting gears or staying in gear? Pushed gas petal and got no power and RPMs jumped to 8 or 9 thousand and finally would slam back down. Called the lube center and was asked to bring back up, problems only worsened on way back found out that they added wrong oil and overfilled but unknown to me at time how much . Was advised to have seen by mechanic, problem continued to worsen on drive home. Had a mechanic friend come by house to see if he could figure out cause of leak and spillage onky to find out that my oil pan is over filled by alot, like alot alot maybe twice amount needed, and my transmission pan is bone dry or trickle from fluid level test valve
My friend said that he couldn't give me a clear idea of damages without having it put on lift and proper inspection at shop but told me it is bad
What makes this problem better or worse?
Driving car makes it worse!
