Depends on where its leaking from. But prolly not covered i meant they dont break into it at all just pull the drive shaft, disconect wires, pull off clutch cable. If its your tail seal then just buy one for $5. lol But other than that i realy dont see how they could have messed it up. Unless they did something they werent spose to. ( take your tranny and play rocket launcher with it lol)

that looks like more or a rear main leak than anything else... the only thing thats in the general area there would be the fron bearing retainer and that shouldn't leak at all, i mean it's just rtv'ed... call the shop and tell them that your tranny is leaking now say that u want them to fix it and see what happends...
