Trans fluid drops out of the dust cover weep hole?
I am still chasing a small leak that is only 1-2 drops a week after driving.
I think I may have narrowed down the source of my small leak. During my last oil change I didn’t add UV dye to the engine oil, but there was still dye in the transmission fluid. I’m seeing some green residue and wetness around the transmission pan. What I don’t understand is how transmission fluid could make its way from the pan area into the dust shield and then drip out of the weep hole. Is there a path where fluid could migrate like that? The flywheel is dry and it isn't slinging fluid and I think if it was the front pump seal it would be a lot more fluid.
