That’s why our expert technicians are here to provide comprehensive transmission fluid leak repairs, ensuring your Audi RS7 continues to deliver optimal performance.
Issue Found:
1. Worn Transmission Pan Gasket
Problem:
The transmission pan gasket plays a crucial role in sealing the transmission pan to prevent fluid from leaking. Over time, heat and pressure can cause the gasket to wear out, crack, or shrink, leading to transmission fluid leaks.
Solution:
During our inspection, we discovered that the transmission pan gasket had become brittle and was leaking fluid. We removed the transmission pan, cleaned the surfaces, and replaced the old gasket with a new OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) gasket. After reinstalling the pan, we refilled the transmission with the correct type and amount of fluid and performed a leak test to ensure no further leakage.
2. Leaking Transmission Cooler Lines
Problem:
The transmission cooler lines are responsible for carrying fluid to and from the cooler to regulate the transmission’s temperature. If these lines become cracked or damaged, they can leak transmission fluid, leading to a loss of fluid and potential overheating of the transmission.
Solution:
We identified that the transmission cooler lines had developed small cracks, causing fluid to leak. We replaced the damaged lines with high-quality OEM replacement parts to ensure proper fluid circulation. We also inspected all connections and ensured that the new lines were securely fitted to prevent any future leaks.
3. Faulty Seals Around the Torque Converter
Problem:
The torque converter connects the engine to the transmission and relies on seals to maintain a proper seal and prevent fluid leakage. Over time, these seals can wear out, especially if the vehicle has high mileage or has been subjected to extreme driving conditions.
Solution:
Upon closer inspection, we found that the seals around the torque converter were worn and leaking transmission fluid. We removed the torque converter, replaced the faulty seals with new OEM seals, and reinstalled the converter. This resolved the leakage issue and restored the integrity of the transmission fluid system.
4. Damaged Transmission Fluid Filler Tube Seal
Problem:
The transmission fluid filler tube is used to add fluid to the transmission. A worn or damaged filler tube seal can cause transmission fluid to leak out, especially if the tube is not tightly sealed.
Solution:
We found that the filler tube seal was damaged and allowing fluid to escape. We replaced the seal with a new OEM part, ensuring a tight and secure fit to prevent any future fluid leakage.
