Allison 5sp: Trans leaking while parked
- Thread starter kenp313

Seriously, get under it and look at it! How in the world would we have any idea where it is leaking from other than down onto the drive way?
Could be a couple different things. Seal going out and the temp changes effecting it is what I would say.
When my Tahoe sat outside over winter it would not shift into 4wd. Found out a critter had made a nest above transfer case and chewed all my wires. Maybe a critter chewed thru a tranny line or the pan itself.....Just an idea...
It's not low, the other 3 were in the sun and swolt up.
When I drive my 03 my fuel disappears, any idears?
Are there stray dogs around you? Dog urine may cause alum. wheels to corrode and therefore leak....
Dog urine also works great on poison oak if you have it on your body. Just pour it on. The tricky part is bottling it.....
Lol wow ken looks like you received a lot of solid advice. I read his question and I realized exactly what he was asking. Simply is there something that normally causes a trans to leak after sitting for awhile, seems simple enough to me....disappointing I see a lot more insults on these threads now a days then usual. When someone posts an honest question it does not make them stupid that is not what this is suppose to be about. You may think it's a silly question, but so what? Lol not everyone is as knowledgeable, people are trying to learn, so teach them..

Could be anywhere. Trans lines, driveshaft seal, pump rub the list goes on and on. Get under it and look where it's coming from then ask who, what, where, when, why?
Oh I'm tracking man you don't have to tell me, just speaking my mind on op's behalf most of those comments were un called for.
Why pick on us and not him? He never took the time to look under the truck and see where it was coming from.
Mike, I'm not picking on anyone sir. I do agree he should have looked under the truck however knowing ken personally I'm sure he walked outside to go to PT this morning and noticed it, not having time to look under the truck considering the army has time hacks he probably thought something like well **** I'll post up on the forum real quick and see if any of the more knowledgable guys over there have an idea of what usually can cause this after sitting, that way I'm prepared when i get home. Lol something like that.
Thank GOD. Thank you sid. Yeah man seen a damn puddle under the truck after pt. As YOU know the op. tempo of my job doesn't allow me to check on my truck as soon as a problem arises. Didn't have a chance to look at it yet today doing maintenance, pcc/pci ect, you know how it is. Simply figured I'd post my findings to get a jump start for when I get home. Thanks bro
