Re: tranny leak!!!

Take it to a transmission shop. After I had my transmission rebuilt, it kept on leaking from the axle seal so have that checked out. How bad is it leaking? Make sure to keep an eye on your transmission fluid so it doesnt run to low.

tranny leak

from where is the leak coming from?if you can pinpoint the exact location youll know what it is and where its from.could be tranny,transfer case if awd,leak from somewhere else that might make you think thats what it is or my opinion the main seal.hard to tell on a dsm with as many oil leaks it can have,hehehehe

Re: tranny leak!!!

There are only so many options. But enough that its impossible for us to offer anything usefull based on the information provided. Potential leaks are:

Passenger side axle seal
Drivers side axle seal
Output shaft seal (AWDs)
Input shaft seal (requires total transmission dissasembly)
One of the 3 case joints
Drain/fill plugs.

I'm also assuming you have a 5 speed. Assuming, because you dont provide this information. Also, "wut" is not a word. "What" is only one more keystroke
