Coach has been parked for winter since November.

Noticed transmission fluid has leaked out onto the concrete pad. I have a Ragusa aluminan transmission pan, and it looks like the fluid is leaking out around.

The Ragusa pan was put on ~2008. At that time I also changed the transmission filter. I have not driven as much as I should have since 2008. Less than 3,000 miles for sure. My question is, is it worth it to change the filter, or should I just get a new gasket, considering how few miles it has been driven?

At this point I am not sure if it is leaking around the pan or somewhere else.

I found some older posts that sounded like a few people have had issues with the Ragusa pan "seeping" fluid? FWIW, I do still have the original pan. Is there any reason to go back to it?

Thanks.
