This is from a limited mechanical member. The transmission leaks out a little fluid after sitting for a few weeks abd after a road trip. Is this normal? Is there an easy fix? Should I be worried
Also my speedometer reads 7 MPH slower than what I am going, I checked this out with gps and having another vehicle next to me, do not know what the PO has put in for final drive. Is there something I can check to see what the final drive is? Fixes to this problem? So when I am driving 55 I am actually going 62

Thanks for any and all input

Kevin,

Small leaks are not at all uncommon.

But:
3.55/3.07 = 1.156*55 = 63.6
An indicated 55 could easily be that far off.

Matt
