go to a ase certified transmission shop for help. if they tell you it needs a rear seal or they need to pull the drive shaft run like hell.

It relies upon. in case you haven't any longer replaced it till now, be careful changing it or it may start up leaking, because of the fact the a number of sludge would be sealing the seals. in case you have carried out it somewhat those days, the two will in all threat do the trick. The flushing backflushes the clear out, nonetheless finally the clear out will could be replaced. Draining that is going to depart some transmission fluid in the transmission.

i own a repair shop,and there's a lot of places it could be leaking from,one id from the front seal ,and it will slowly run down and get around the pan gasket,,another is the shift rod that goes through the transmission,,also any in-out shafts may leak and get on tings that really aren't leaking,yo nee to thou roughly clean it all off,and then see where it seeps out from,,it will probably leak ,when its not running ,a front seal though,will only leak when its running,,it will eventually stop until it is started again,,all i can tell you ,is wipe it off really good,and start looking real close,you,ll find it,,good luck with it,hope this help,s.merry x-mas.

Just because the bolts are tight doesn't mean anything.In fact they only require about 12 ft lbs of torque so if you tightened them you probably just made the leak worse by splitting the gasket in there.No one can tell you where it's leaking from without seeing it.Your not a mechanic so leave it alone before you really screw it up. Take it to someone who has experience.Not trying to be rude,those are just the facts.

Are these general mechanics that looked at it, and went "duh, I dunno"? Or maybe they are unlicenced service people? Go to an actual transmission repair shop, where they specialize, or go to a GM dealer where they will have a transmission specialist, and you will get the best information. In the meantime, try a name brand transmission stop leak. If it is a seal, this will correct the problem, at least for a year or more. If it is mechanical, then stop leak will do nothing, but won't hurt anything.

The bushing where the drive shaft goes into the tranny at the back.

Probably front or rear seals. Back one is easy to change so with your luck its the front seal. Have to drop the tranny.

Your problem could be case porosity. This is where the case itself isn't solid and fluid will leak through it. This usually means replacing the transmission and it is hard to diagnose.

maybe the pan is warped or it could be coming from the front seal.also check the axle rear seal.
