Re: [DML] transmission leak along flange / output shaft splines?



Dave,

That got me wondering... Since I got those o-rings from the Renault dealer 
and they see this problem very often, maybe they supply the wrong size 
o-ring? That is possible. I guess I'll remove the flanges again to see if I 
can fix it right.

Thank you
