Hi,

I just got underneath my car to inspect things, and I noticed I am leaking transmission fluid from a gap I have between my axle and tranny casing.

I got my passenger's side axle replaced about 6 months ago, and now I come to realize that it is leaking from the gap between the axle and transmission case. is this gap normal? is it leaking from overfill maybe? or bad axle seals?

here are the pics, any help will be greatly appreciated.

 

that looks like its in completely, but your axle seals may be bad

 

Bad axle seals. They don't cost a whole lot and are pretty easy to change, make sure you don't put the new ones in too far, they should be flush with the outside of the case. The old seals can be used to drive in the new seals btw. Also, you will loose some transmission fluid, so you'll want to top that up with some cheap 10W30. Don't use proper Honda MTF in a '92 - '95 D-series transmission, it's just too thin.

 

Good to know its just the seal. so that gap is normal?

thanks

 

Yes.
