A reddish-colored oil is discovered to be leaking during an engine oil change and inspection: Technician A says it may be from a leak in the cooling system. Technician B says it may be leaking transmission fluid. Who is correct?
While discussing the cause of an oil leak in an axle housing, Technician A says if the fluid leaks past the threads of the drive pinion nut, the leak can be corrected by installing a copper washer under the nut. Technician B says fluid leakage past the stud nuts that hold the carrier assembly to the axle housing can be corrected by applying thread or gasket sealer on the threads and tightening the nuts to specifications.
