All -

New Jeep owner here. I have a slow leak in my transmission, it appears to
be coming from the seal that connects the 2 halves of the transmission.
It's leaking about the equilivant of 2-3 thimbles of fluid a week (this is a
1x a week driver so it sits for a week at a time) Is this anything I should
be concerned enough about to take it in and have fixed or should I just make
sure I have adequate fluid in the trans? What would it cost to have
something like that fixed?

Thanks in advance for thoughts.

Have you checked that all the bolts are tight?
Mine leaked a bit and the pan bolts were loose.
