Well she has sprung a leak....I've found where it's coming from...

Any takers on the fluid and where?

 

I can name that leak in four drops....umm...pm sent

 

By taste?
j/k

 

taste? ugh..no...I rub a few drops on the paint and if the paint comes off I know it's pentosin ok genius...why don't you help Kevin out

 

I had already sent him a pm

 

Unless it's a Toyota (red coolant) I am going for trans fluid. If it is the common leak (from what I've read) I guess torque converter seal.

 

Maybe she is in period?

 

my un-technical self is going to side with this fantastic suggestion.

 

Coolant most likely from the plastic pipes beneath the intake manifold, but can often be followed by torque converter seal as well.

 

You really need to clean that floor... thats gross

 

Name that leak happens to be my favorite past-time.

 

Porsche coolant when seen through a clear container is an orangish pink color.
Its Coolant.

 

and the older you get the more leaks you have to name...don't ask me how I know

 

can you name my leak?

Hello, I have a leak in the unit between the engine and the transmission, it leaks very fast. It happend when I did a brake boost launch.

It leaks out of the threaded holes at the bottom of the houseing that bolts between the eng and trans.

Thanks

 

Hmmmm.....
The only thing between the engine and the transmission is the transmission. If it is transmission fluid, and I suspect it is, it is the input shaft seal that has gone..... It's replacement requires transmission removal I am afraid. However, on early 04 transmissions it is "not" a replaceable part and requires a transmission change....You will have to check the TSB's for this info.

Sorry, there isn't a TSB for this info. It is dependent on trans serial number. A Porsche dealer will have the required info.....
