So Ive noticed small bits of tranny fluid on the driveway for a few years not. The last time I checked the leak was like a year ago until today! There was quite a bit on the driveway and all over the cross member.

The leak is not coming from the pan, its coming from the drivers side to what I believe to be some sort of solenoid. Bad O-ring or somthing. If anyone has any info on how to go about replacing the seal. There looks to be a plate on the tranny for the t-case shifter covering the access to the solenoid.

Here are some pics to give you all a better idea

Thanks everyone! and the tranny is dirty! so im gonna clean it up and maybe get a better idea. But thanks for any info!

The solenoids (3) aren't visible without dropping the pan. The item circled in red is described as the "harness adaptor".

I actually found out the same info after I posted. Check page 15 on http://www.scribd.com/doc/35809180/AW4-Manual. Now I dont think I will have to remove the oil pan. First im gonna see if I can just tighten the bolt that holds it in. If that doesnt work it seems as if I can remove that bolt and replace the o-ring. The only thing is this plate thats covering it and it looks like it bolts between the t-case and trans. I still gotta clean it up though before I make to many assumptions.
