T56 Leaking Questions
T56 Leaking Questions
Let me explain my problem. I have been leaking tranny fluid for about a month now and am getting tired of it. My car is a 2002 WS6 Trans Am 6speed and it just turned 34K miles on the odometer. I thought it was the rear seal but got under it and that is not it. It seems to be leaking on the driver's side down onto Torque Arm. So I took it to the dealer to see what they thought. They had it up on the rack for about an hour and told me it was the speed sensor O-ring and the Reverse lock out switch are both leaking. 50 dollars in parts and 310.00 labor. Has anyone else had these problems especially the reverse lockout switch leaking. I have heard of the Speed sensor O-Ring leaking but I don't think I have ever heard or reverse lock out leaking? How hard is it to replace these items?

Speed sensor is easy, can do it without dropping the tranny. I really don't see how the reverse lockout can be leaking. There isn't even any fluid in there!

And there is no gasket on there either, because there is nothing to leak. Definitely replace the VSS o-ring, cheap fix. But I wouldn't even worry about the reverse lockout.
