I have this pesky leak and can't resolve the problem
I replaced both gasket's twice and it still leaks the same
Leaking from the inner side not the outer O-ring
This is the gasket set I used.
I didn't see where the c-clip would be used
Tried 2 aftermarket sensors and they both leak from the o-ring where it goes into the trans.
Both of these slide easily into the trans but the original I needed to push hard to get it into the trans.
Silicone sealer (RTV), or silicone lubricant? If RTV, you'll probably want to replace the o-ring with one that has no ATF on it so there's a chance the RTV will stick to it some.
Cleaned the o-ring, sensor and trans with carb cleaner. Put a thin layer of RTV on the o-ring and trans and installed the sensor. Let dry overnight and leak is gone.
