Got my oil changed yesterday, and when it was all said and done I received one of those fancy doohickey reports that tells you what's all wrong with your car and stuff. Turns out I have a leaking oil pan, a leaking transmission pan, leaking transmission cooler line, and a leaking front left axle seal. What would it cost to fix all this stuff? But in specific, the axle seal?

i dont think the drivers side has a seal??
Did they mean the CV axle itself is ripped and needs a new axle?
Can you see if there is grease sung up from one the boots?

Probably about $120 for a shop to do it.

There are seals on both sides cam.

must be on the inside, or not very visible, or I was not paying attention lol

it sits flush with the side pan.

If funds are an issue consider the following order:
1. Trans cooler line, due to unpredictability of the leak (cold ND weather).
2. Axle Seal
3. Trans pan gasket.
4. Engine oil pan gasket.
That's my opinion.
If you're paying parts and labour I would assume more than $1000 for all. Heard the engine oil pan gasket is a PITA.

I wouldn't say funds are an issue. It's just that I am planning on buying a 2nd car in a month or so, so spending over 1k on my current car doesn't really interest me haha. But, I do plan on keeping my GP for a long time, possibly until it dies. It is an excellent daily driver, so it might not be such a bad idea to get the leaks fixed before they get any worse.
