Default Question about Trans leak

I had a trans leak so I took it in to ford and they replaced the out put seal. I pull in to the driveway and see a little tiny puddle of tranny fluid. Ford had my tranny on the floor at 5,000 miles cause I had it in for the noisy clutch and they ended up going into the tranny. Anyway it leaked after that so I went in at around 7,000 and they told me it was probobly resivor overflow. So bout 6,000 miles later which is around 13,000miles I took her in for it. Like I stated earler they replaced the output seal on the trans and its still leaking. I've only had her back for a couple of days.

Has anyone had problems with there's leaking? Say it was having resivor overflow how long would it take for it to spit out the extra and stop leaking?

I had what i thought was oil leaking and it turned out to be the transmission. I didn't ask what was wrong but on my work order it said driveshaft assembly replaced, so it doesn't sound like the same issue.

Great, I too have been noticing a small amount of fluid leaking its not oil, which led me to think it was either brake or tranny fluid. Do you think duct tape will fix it
