I basically lost transmission fluid due to a hose disconnect, now the engine has disengaged itself from the transmission.

Do I need to Give it more Fluid, or reset anything?
I doubt anything mechanically is wrong.

I have a 2001 3.3 V6 RWD.

What do you mean disconnected itself?

I had a hose come off and empty my tranny. I just filled it up and switched gears for a while in the drive btw it took 9 quarts to fill and its D-matic

I know sometimes CVT's will shut down because of fluid levels, or heat etc... The transmission oil cooler I had installed lost it's mount and dragged on the ground for a little bit before i noticed.. by then there's alot of fluid gone.

You're saying i need to fill it back up with fluid?

I ended up scrapping the cooler and hooking up to my radiator.

Yeah as long as its the original connection ports on the radiator, my 01 is hooked to the radiator so that's all i had to do.
