MC Transmission leak

[Ad1210]

Gday all,



I have a 2013 MC Zetec Petrol thats unfortunately just failed its rego due to a leak on the transmission. Its a steady drip-drip-drip so fairly serious and the guys doing the inspection suggest that its either the seal or theres a crack in the transmission somewhere. I suspect the latter as the car was involved in a minor front end bingle about 8 months ago. In either scenario, its a pull it out to diagnose job so Im thinking that for a 10 year old car with 170,000 on the clock and a value of around $9,000, any repair is unfortunately going to be uneconomical.


Just wondering whether people agree with that opinion or whether im writing the car off prematurely?


Cheers
Andrew
