same problem smitty mentioned. i finally got under the car with a good light, and saw that it was in fact not coming from the seal, but above the pan. it seems to be coming from where the kickdown cable returns into the tranny. does this make sense or what? a couple weeks ago, the cable (which has been stuck for a year now, and i moved to the passenger side so i could more easily access it for repair or whatever) burnt on the engine block and the plastic came off and i found that the cable had rusted through and returned mostly to the transmission...meaning that everythiing shifts at low rpm's, i shift my auto anyway, so it wasn't a big deal. this makes sense because that's the same day that the leak started in the first place. think it would be fixed simply by replacing the kickdown cable? this is quite a relief if that's as hard as it would get.
