Well, my SHO is heading back to the shop AGAIN for a passenger side axle seal leak for the 3rd time.
First noticed PTU and general area covered in trans fluid during my last oil change. Had the seal replaced, all was good for about a week. Second time around, I was losing gear oil out of the PTU (was landing on the exhaust piping and wow did it reek) had that seal replaced, and all was good for the last month or so.
Had some irregular shifting yesterday so checked the fluid level and was about a quart low. Fluid level was right at the bottom of the dipstick. Jacked the car up, and sure enough, the plastic collar (for lack of the proper term) on the axle that connects to the PTU is flopping around on the axle.
Is there anything I should be having my mechanic looking at/for besides the seals which may be causing my car to be eating these things?
If it matters any, trans fluid is motorcraft LV, and PTU is filled with AMSoil. Thanks guys!
