Nag1 Trans on 3.7L is leaky

Well its got a slow leak. And I mean slow no puddles or anything it just collects on the bolt heads. Ive head there is a sensor that is prone to leak but I don't see it under there.



Anyone have any idea for me to look. When I had the trans flushed about 5 or 6K ago it was about a quart low. That was at about 40K. Wanna try and get it fixed. I think it is already low cause after it was flushed I would smell burning oil. Well the cat is right under the trans so thats most likely where the smell was coming from. I no longer have that smell. Thanks!

So it was already leaking before the trans service? Did you get a flush or a pan drop? Just because it was low doesn't mean it was leaking either.

Hey man, get under there with some safety glasses and spray the hell out of everything with some carb cleaner to clean it all off (while its COLD).

Then go for a spin, and take another look to see if you can get a better idea of where the leak is starting. Go from there.

A guy over a jf pointed me in the right direction. I'm 99% sure its that sensor. Majority of the fluid is near the sensor and it is only a 15 dollar 10 min fix. Gonna attempt it this weekend. Oh and I also just applied for a tech school. Gonna try to get ase cert.

Good stuff.

You planning on starting a career as a tech? Or do you just want to get ASE certs to learn? (FYI, you learn a lot more just by working)

Looking to start something. I have experiance with small engines and Ive always been good with my hands. (shut it sal) So I figured it would be a good idea to try it out. If it isnt what I think it is I will still have that knowledge to save myself money.
