I picked up a 95 Accord with a V6 for dirtcheap to drive for the winter. Its an auto, but the tranny is leaking. I haven't jacked it up yet (I've owned it for 2 hours) but I am just wondering if there is any known places where these things leak from. It does have 213k, but I picked it up for $200 with a pretty clean body, nearly mint interior, new brakes, and all I did was put some fluid in it and drove it home. Thanks.

 

Is it leaking oil or transmission fluid? Where is the leak coming from?

 

I can't see exactly where its coming from because of the splash guard, but it is tranny fluid. And it snowed here so I can't jack it up right this second

 

I haven't heard too much about ATs leaking fluid. Try to locate the source of the leak.

I would inspect the drain plug to see if the seal is bad and around the sensors and solenoids. It is possible that there is a crack in the case somewhere.

 

Also check around where the inner CV joint meets the Differential.
It could be that an axle has been replaced and there was a seal damaged going back together.
