Have no luck with those known to be very reliable 5 speed transmissions. Last year changed original tranny due to problems with 5th gear at 400k. Installed different 5speed tranny from tdi with 200k and now have big leak at the bottom of housing where transmission is bolted to motor . Car drivers normally no issues with tranny or clutch does not slip ,pulls strong ,suprisingly given such a big leak . Car leaves palm size stain after 1hr parking .Checked output CV shafts there are dry guessing must be main center shaft seal leakin.only place where I see drops of brown clear tranny oil is at the bottom of clutch housing . Will changing this main seal will solve my problem ? Cant find much info about changing this particular seal . Any help appriciated.
