leak from transmission cooler pipe

Post by markmark » Sat Feb 17, 2024 12:04 am

I have leaks from the place marked in red. The engine and gearbox are installed in the car. Do you know if it will be possible to remove the left gearbox leg without disassembling the engine to easily access these tubes? I wonder if the turbo/downpipe will interfere with unscrewing the gearbox mounting

Maybe. There is a DIY guide on here for replacing that selector switch you can see in your photo without removing the engine, that might give you enough clearance?
