The trans can also leak from the shaft plug below the input shaft. The problem is that you can't get this plug out unless you rip the whole tranny apart. It looks like you can if you take the circlip out, but let me save you some time, you can't. All you can do is fill that dip where the plug is with some epoxy to seal it shut.Adam Fogg- '88 M3
