Car Forum / Jeep / January 2008Help - 99 Jeep Wrangler 4.0 Sport Leaking Tran Fluid from inspection cover
My Jeep is leaking transmission fluid from the inspection cover. I have not been able to get the inspection cover off, I have tried a 1/2" and it rolls, 7/16 to small 12mm to small 13 mm to big. But my real question is if there is fluid leaking from there what could it be from and how major of a repair should it be? If I take it into a shop what should I expect to pay? Any help would be appriecated. If you email me please remove the NOSPAM part. > My Jeep is leaking transmission fluid from the inspection cover.

If you > email me please remove the NOSPAM part. If it's a standard, then the front bearing retainer seal is likely leaky. If it's an automatic, you could be full of water so it is leaking out the vent in the bell housing. or again the front seal or the torque converter seal is bad. I guess the standard could also be full of water so there is too much pressure on the seal. If the fluid is milky, suspect water. To change a front seal, the tranny has to come out.

If I can get the inspector cover off, what should I look for? Thanks for your help. >> My Jeep is leaking transmission fluid from the inspection cover.
