Guest Vertigo Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 My car is an 88 Sedan GL and its 2wd 3AT and its leaking gear oil kinda bad like 3 to 4 drops when the engine is off and sits for a second. I'm thinking its the drain plug and I'm gonna replace it this weekend. but is there any other place gear oil can leak from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest carfreak85 Posted August 8, 2003 Share Posted August 8, 2003 i doubt you have a bad "DRAIN PLUG" rather i think you are missing the crush washer that goes between the tranny case and the drain plug. just a thought, and you can probably get one at schucks or from subaru.

Guest todds Posted August 10, 2003 Share Posted August 10, 2003 that motor is prone to leak oil through the head gasket area on bottom of the engine. theres a o ring problem from factory.every one i had leaked there. not much but enough to look crappy and get on exust pipe.and stink. thinking of a deflector of sorts. good luck todd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Vertigo Posted August 12, 2003 Share Posted August 12, 2003 Ok I replaced it with one I got at checker but it wasn't a metal washer on it, it was actaully different but I didn't think it mattered. anyway It still leaks and it seems a bit worse now. Do I need to get a metal one or what? or is my tranny just messed up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
