Where is this r380 leaking from?
Before I do any exploratory disassembly, I thought I’d poll the group to see if anyone can speculate where my transmission is leaking from.

The left side is rally wet with oil, the right side some, but no so much.

Common issue?

Looks like it is coming from the gearstick housing joint, maybe the simple top gasket and done!

dependent on age of gear box build may be gasket or RTV

Thanks for the input, it’s an 06 build transmission, but very low miles.
