Tranny fluid pouring out

[showman]

After a quick acceleration to 50mph, all my tranny fluid started pouring out between the tranny pan and that aluminum cover next to the oil pan.

It streams out when you turn the engine on.

I had no leakage before.

What am I looking at?

Thanks Gang!

A: Front tranny seal
B: Torque converter (less likely I would think)

Auto or Manual trans? Did you hear anything?

 

[showman]

Auto tranny.

Heard nothing. Anyone know what'll cost for a front seal replacement?

 

[cntrhub]

Basically, there are three areas that can blow/be damaged. Front pump seal o-ring, the torque converter seal, or the torque converter sleeve is torn up, causing a gap between the seal and converter shaft.
Cannot guess what the price will be to R&R the Trans to find out what went wrong? Better change all rubber o-rings internally, or you'll wasted a clutch pack, because it won't be able to seal under pressure.

My leak was at the dipstick grommet. Cheap/easy/common fix...

Good job DIPSTICK!!!

Just compare avatars, chimp!
The grommet is a common leak point (though it doesn't pour out usually) and will eventually need replacing.

This game reminds me of you...

PS I'm the one with the double-barrel!

We are only joking around... no worries! (I think we are joking anyway)

Did someone say a Tranny was leaking? I told her not to have that opperation.

I can fix that. I'm a urologist! No joke.
