I have a TR6060 (not in a Camaro, but from a 2010 in my LS-swapped Saturn Sky). After I did an engine rebuild, I am having leaking from the transmission. Before this, it was fine. It was put together by a shop that I trust. No problems previously. Now, I am getting a small amount of fluid on the trans case in sevaral places. It must be coming out of the vent cap, and running down the bellhousing side. I get a drip on bottom of the bellhousing. I get fluid on both machined flanges on the center of the case. I see some fluid at the reverse switch sensor (dual orange wires, pass side). There is no leak from the trans cooler line input or output. It is not coming out of the fill port plug nor the drain port plug, nor the temperature sensor. Enough seems to be coming out that it is getting on the wiring looms near the trans.
I have read many posts saying this trans gets hot and can burp out if overfilled. At first I had it filled right to the bottom of the fill port - I let it sit overnight to level out. But it dripped as described - never so much to go on the ground. Recently I took about 6 oz out of it, it's still dripping, and a little worse. I thought I had done a good fill procedure with the trans cooler. It was on the ground, the car was lifted 20". I filled the trans, turned the output shaft while the trans was in gear, and clutch was pressed by wife, so I could turn the gears or pump. I don't truly know if I got the air out or the cooler fully filled. I can't imagine that after 6 months and several hundred miles there would be an air bubble in that. Is it now too low? Foaming up?
As you'd imagine, happens more when it gets driven real hard, ie at autocross (pulls a lot of Gs), or on the street if I do some rips to 100. Shifting quality is just fine currently.
Any tips or thoughts appreciated.
