i took my 08 3.7 z71 colorado to the stealership to inspect a leak coming from my transmission. i thought it was just the pan gasket leaking, no biggy right?
so the report comes back with the following:
"VERIFIED CUSTOMER CONCERN. FOUND TRANSMISSION PUMP SEAL TO BE LEAKING. RECOMMEND REPLACE TRANSMISSION PUMP O-RING, GASKET, T/C SEAL, TURBINE SHAFT O-RING, TRANSMISSION FILTER W/GASKET. EST $1704"
yikes.. so much for the pan gasket as being the culprit..
i took a look at the view hole underneath the bell housing and found no fluid leaking from that area.
is the transmission pump towards the front of the truck when looking through the view hole or is it located near the transmission pan side?
im still wondering if my first inclination was right and the o ring stuff was just a gimmick to charge me more to pull the transmission out.
