I just put a new axle in my car about 4 days ago. This is the driver side and it is on the 7afe. I noticed that the day after I did this the transmission is leaking where the axle goes into it. Now the little metal dust cover got bent when I pulled the old axle out. Could the leak be this bent dust cover because that does not seem like it could be. Or is it possible that I messed up the seal in the transmission when I shoved the new axle in there? Just wondering on some expertise here before I go tearing into the car again because that was a little bit of work pulling that axle and I want to know what it could be before I do this. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

I doubt the bent dust cover can cause the leak. Its usually a good practive to replace the rubber seal and the snap ring when you put the axle back in. Atleast changing the seal should stop the leak.
