Guys and Gals, I recently replaced my transmission lines which went pretty well but now the lines are leaking at the fittings where they go into the pan. I gave them each a good tug and they seem to be in there well.
Is there a rubber seal or something where the line goes in that could need replacement? Or could there be a need to replace the fittings going into the pan.
I fixed a leak but a couple more sprung :th_scratchhead:

I'd really appreciate any thoughts on why the lines/fittings could be leaking at the transmission after a new line install. They were fine before - Let me know if you have anything to offer.
Anyone know why new lines would leak at the transmission? Can I apply rtv or some other sealant to stop the slow drip of trans fluid? I'd really appreciate some input.Quote:

I replaced the fittings with some from Napa and it appears the leaks are now resolved. It looks like there are small rubber o-rings inside the fittings. Given they are almost 10 years old, they probably just couldn't make a nice seal after the old lined were replaced.
Hopefully this can help someone in the future.
