About 40% of the respondents showing fluid transfer - you think that's "rare"? It's pretty damn pervasive IMO....

It's too early to tell for me. I did have to add some trans fluid but I haven't opened up primary yet to see if it is overfilled. I have @ 800 miles so I will report back.

it's probably not "rare" or "pervasive"

the sample size is way too small to mean anything, either way. It could say 100% no problems and it would be meaningless
