Are you 100% sure it's trans fluid? Benny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as it's not being blown back from further forward on the engine then it will be gearbox out to find the source. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While the box is out you could change that also considering the box will be out. Cheap part and easy to replace. How much power is your car making? Do you have a transcooler fitted, is your BTR built or stock?Benny. Edited 24/03/13 09:03 PM by Benny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
