'02 XKR transmission leaking, it started when freezing weather hit ?
Anyone have this happen. Am loosing about a tablespoon overnight.
Do I just need to move to the Tropics ?
will be under the car soon to see where it's coming from . The transmission pan was dropped last summer for some maintenance, but no leaks for the next 6,000 miles, until the weather got down to 15 F.

Take a look under there and find the leak point first. Since the sealing points are plastic, they shrink in the cold and leak if they are at all questionable. Retorque the pan if its there, If its the electronics sleeve, you'll have to pull the pan to change it since the lock for the sleeve is inside the pan area.
