If its not leaking and your transmission seems so slip, maybe you'll need someone to look at your transmission fluid level.

I already tried myself and couldn't level the car on ramp so I went at the dealer so they could check it with the engine running and transmission at operating temperature.

Since there's no dipstick to check the fluid level on the transmission, you have to level the car with the engine running, transmission at normal operating temperature and unscrew the fill plug slowly. If at 3/4 of the plug when you unscrew it (sorry, dont know if its the correct word), there's some fluid dripping from the plug, the fluid is at correct level.
