2007 Honda Accord Leaks Oil When Engine Is Hot by Tectonics: 2:17pm On Sep 24, 2023
My DC 2007 leaks transmission fluid when I'm driving . Mechanic says it is leaking at the top of the transmission just under the battery, that he will use 1000 naira gum to stop the leakage. Please I need advice as I don't know if ordinary 1000 naira gum can solve this problem. Does anyone have similar experience or know about how this leakage be permanently solved or will the gum work as suggested by my mechanic. It only leaks out when engine is hot, when parked to cool, the fluid doesn't leak out

If you confirmed that it's leaking from top of the transmission, let him use the glue to patch it, if not better search for where the leak is from oo

Before you do anything stupid, answer a few questions

Did someone work on your transmission recently?

Is your transmission dipstick/fill cap still in place?

Your transmission won't just start leaking fluid on its own unless something has gone wrong.

The earlier you correct the wrong the cheaper it is.

I think someone serviced your Honda with Abro

First thing to do is drain and flash.

Use the correct aft and gauge.

Is look like the fluid boils when engine is hot.

Original transmission will not do that even when it’s over gauge.

Take the car to a proper technician to look at it and fix the problem once and for all. Glue will melt away when the engine/gear gets hot.
