I need help, my car is been sitting for a month due to finally getting the right axle seal. I have a 2014 ACCORD 2.4L CVT. I have tried everything to get the axle back in, it's the original CV axle I only took it out to replace the axle seal. I called the dealership to get the right seal. I replaced it and now the axle has about 1/4 gap I tried to see if probably the seal or clip was the problem but even without the clip or the seal there’s still a gap. I'm nothing sure if it's the bar in the transmission that's stopping it. I tried everything. I put it on P,R, N and P but nothing works. It thought it was normal but when I put transmission fluid in it's starts leaking from that gap. I'm not sure what to do.
Please help
