Thank you for the help in advance. I drive a 99 Prelude and am in some trouble here. 2 holes were put in my transmission pan form a raised manhole on a road under contruction. Is there any way to repair those holes with out replacing the transmission oil pan? ( Anything out there on the market that would seal those holes? you can put about 2 fingers in on an 1 in the other) Secondly am I able to replace just the transmission oil pan and if so would any one know how much the part would cost and how to do it? Also if its a task I can do in the garage or should i take it into a shop?

thanks

is it automatic or manual tranny? i never heard of a manual transmission having a oil pan.. few weeks back the differential snapped and made a hole in my tranny. i took the tranny off and figured out the one of the gears locked up on the non-lsd.. so the shop sealed it by melting some aluminum. but in your case im thinking its a automatic tranny. i dont know if there is anything that you can buy and seal it up

 

Yes it is an automatic tranny... I hope there is a way to seal it.... or replace the tranny oil pan...

 

whos doing the construction? im sure u can get someone to pay for it unless if ur ridiculously lowered. i heard calling the better business bureau and reporting it can get you a good settlement if u know what company is doing the work. im not sure on the details, juse throwing ideas out there to save your pockets

 

My cars lowered so the chances are pretty slim.... But im going to give it a shot I already have that card in play, still need advice...

thanks

 

you could risk having a shop weld some plates over them and make sure they're sealed

or you could buy another pan for probably pretty cheap.
