Suspected gearbox fluid leak. | |
Help
L322 TD6
I have been noticing a few drops on the drive when parked up, thought it was a diesel leak so fixed that which was wearing slightly.
However on way home from work tonight, thought it was hanging in the gears a lot. Stopped for fuel when I pulled away I got the trans safe program which went out pretty quickly.
Then pulling away from lights had to rev a lot to get it to pull away.
Had a look underneath and the subframe under the engine is covered in brown thin oil liquid so assume it’s trans fluid.
Ran the car and underneath there is a constant drip from a lobe on an oil cooler just under the alternator which I am assuming is a trans fluid cooler.
Hoping it’s a hose/seal but can’t be sure.
Any thoughts very welcome.
Need to get it to my garage as well!
Thanks all.
