Transmission pan gasket leak/seepage (1 Viewer)

[TYTDIR]

'Noobies' here to this great forum.

I have a 2017 200 series Land Cruiser. Right after doing a AT fluid replacement (drain + fill 3 times) and a fluid level adjustment (exactly following TIS doc), I find a tiny seepage at one side of the tranny pan gasket.

(The black area on the side of the gasket are cleaner (not the tranny fluid))

I am hesitate to take it to the dealer, give such a tinny amount. If to replace the gasket, I would rather do it myself.
Anyone think this is a problem?

Welcome to Mud! If it was mine, I would clean it up and keep track of it over a few weeks/miles. If it continues to leak, even a tiny amount, I would replace the gasket. My reasoning is that you don't want it to get worse and/or create a place for water or contamination to get in. However, it may be just an artifact of your recent fluid change and end up being nothing.

That's what I thought, will keep an eye on it later. Or may be put very lite sealant on couple spot. Thank you!
