Got some pics from the underside, the better I could, guessing thet is not going to help a LOT, but here are

Not sure if there a limit for the size, many forums go crazy with large pictures. This camera is soooo old that pictures are not that big ....

Yep, clock is out of date.Photos are from 9/2014, dont believe the camera

 

Yea, I don't know how to fix/change the dates on my old camera either

Since the car has been sitting the "leak(s)" might be slow weeps.

At this point I would clean up the engine/trans as much as you can and then see if you can get a better idea of where it is coming from.

One pic looked like maybe the trans cooler hoses might be leaking - the rubber hoses from the bottom of the rad to the "hard lines" about mid trans.

Another pic looked like oil might be leaking past the dist o-ring and running/blowing back on the trans - side case of the trans looked more like oil....but again it could be trans fluid mixed with road dirt.

The last pic really looks like trans fluid - red tint by my old blind eyes. But again it "looks" as if it is/was from the very front of the car......which is back to the trans cooler connections at the bottom of the rad up to the trans.

IF the hoses are leaking, be sure to get rubber hose that is rated for trans cooler use. Regular fuel line hose will not hold the pressure and does not have the "right" make up to handle trans fluid......the hose must be rated for trans use.

 

Hi,

Guess you are talking about this one ?



My better guess when noticed the transmission covered in oil is something was leaking all over it. this hoses al above the transmission.

Im going to the mechanic anyways, but, when you know about your car, and know about the possible culprit, well, is harder to be scammed. you know what you are talking about

NOTICE: Car has 205.000KM, not 287.000 (Brain fart there)

when got the car this leak was not that big, or not big enough to get my attention. This appeared after.

That the reason because I asked if the two floor garage ramps, sloppy ones, had something to do with this leak, I mean, how much pressure is built in thos ATF hoses during this effort. Car get the ramps fine but need some revs to avoid stalling. I know that a car is calculated to adress that effort. just discovering is some conection in the hoses, or worn hoses o something just fail because this effort or nothing to do with that, it leaks, just because it can !!!! LOL.

Many thanks

cheers.

 

Short question, forgot about it, sorry.

A couple of months ago ATF level on the stick was perfect.
Now guess need to recheck. Is that leak too much fluid ?. And how the ATF is put in the transmission ?. The point is, if the ATF is too low, can get even to the dealer ship in that condition. Need to add ATF rigth there.

Thanks !!!!

 

Add the ATF into the dipstick hole.

 

I got with the original ATF-DW1 from Honda, about 20 bucks a quarter.
The dipstick happens to be not only deep but small room to work, pipes and hoses running there.
The fluid seller told me that I will need some sort of device to put the ATF in the transmission, some sort of applicator thing ... well. I though it was a bit easy, using something like that ....



I saw in vid on YT the people heat up the ATF fluid to get it running easily during refill ... I need to work out a way to do that.

What do you think ?

Many thanks !!!!!

 

The fluid level needs to be checked when it is warm. If low add....and yes a funnel like that will do the trick every time.
