Other than drain the transmission, add magnetic drain plug, flush, and refill we didn't open it but there is a slight leak coming from the side shifter linkage.
Is the cover intended to catch this leak or is something not right?  |

Defiantly not right. brant is referring to the o-ring for the housing but there is also a seal in that assembly that seals to the shift rod that is sliding in/out of the housing and as it pivots fore/aft. Based on where your leak is, I think it’s that internal seal. I know there are other threads on this - probably with seal info for replacement. |

Agreed, I would bet the leak is from the seal and not the O ring. Plastic cover is meant to keep water/dirt from the linkage area. |
