Leaking Transmission 850 1994

posted by  someone claiming to be Dave F on  Tue Apr 12 14:52 CST 2005 [RELATED]

My 96 855R transmission started leaking about two weeks after I had my RMS replaced at 56K mi. My indy determined a seal for the transmission pump needed replacement. I had the seal replaced and all was fine for 12K mi. One year later the tranmission started leaking again. My indy said it wasn't the seal and I most likely need to replace my trannie if I wanted to stop the leaking. I elected to keep my transmission as all else was working fine. I flushed the system with 12 quarts of Mobil ATF and added a can of BG Transmission Additive. Its been 7K mi since I did the flush and added the can of BG and no leaks! BG recommends retreating every 15K. Hope that helps.
