Hey guys, So i've recently had my axles changed. At first, i didnt have the seals changed, but gear oil was POURING out. So I went to Toyota and got the seal. Put it in, tranny still leaks from the drivers side. What could be the issue now?
And, has anyone used Lucas transmission fix? Lucas trans fix I read alot of good things about it and it claims to stop leaks. Worth a try? Can it do damage? The mechanic has had this axle out THREE times to find this leak and it still drives me nuts. Its quite a bit of oil too, not a minor drip. Any input is appreciated!!! Thanks!! -------------------- ◊◊◊ My F/S Thread! ◊◊◊
QUOTE (14:19:21) Daniel: That was a JDM hole in the side of the box too. There was so much JDM trapped inside that box that they couldn't contain it, so they had to put a JDM hole in the box to let the JDM out. QUOTE Ferdi says (11:29) No, it looks like a hooker put her acid vag on your hood. Acid vag = bigger problem than a few dings. |

^ IDK about polishing it, but it totally stands to reason that if the axle was gritty when it was popped back in, that it wouldn't sit flush with the seal and would thus leak.
Take your car back to the guy who did the work and have him fix it - if it's the axle seal like it sounds like it is, he should have no problem making it right since clearly something was done wrong or overlooked in the first place. --------------------  |
