I have a 95 Z28 automatic; have been fighting a major leak for too long. I had the intake manifold gasket done, the rear main seal done, and then the speed sensor done after the shop determined the fluid was transmission fluid (could've saved some money and time if they figured that out earlier). Problem is, it still leaks. I put a white rag under it to check color, and it is pinkish purple. Is that transmision fluid? Is there a common leak problem on these automatics? What's the fix?

 

First check to make sure the trans lines are tight, that caused mine to leak and made 2 o2 sensors go bad within a month. If it isnt the lines it is probably the gasket around the dipstick, where it enters the pan

 

ditto, and if thats not it, check your tail housing seal (where the driveshaft couples in), and if THATS not it....id hate to think of the front seal where your converter goes in.

 

Thanks for taking the time to help.
