    Default VY V6 Automatic Transmission Leak

    My auto trans has been using a bit of fluid. I refilled it last service and since then it has travelled avout 3000km and needed around another 200ml. Checking under the car today the only sign of leakage is around the starter motor, there was some trans fluid on the 2 bolts holding the starter motor in place and a bit on the plastic cover plate underneath it. I took off both plastic cover plates and the inside of the bell housing is clean, no fluid nor is there any comin gout of the drain plug inthe bottom of the bell housing and it is also bone dry there as well.
    Does anyone have any idea where this leak could be coming from? I can't see how it could be an oil seal on the input shaft given the inside of the bell housing is dry and free of any trans fluid.

    Not sure. I had to replace my rear transmission seal where the tail shaft comes out not long ago, due to a small leak. Other than that only had the pan gasket leak and needed replacing, but was due for fluid change any way. Sorry can't be of more help.
    'Ah well, I suppose it had to come to this.'
