I just bought a 1600 vw trike w/auto trans. The owner said the front seal may be leaking because it was losing fluid. I kind of like the auto because it is very easy to drive for my significant other but I have had a heck of a time trying to figure out the fluid level. Cold, I have filled it to the top bar on the dip stick, when I get back from a short ride (15 miles), put it in neutral and check, no reading. When I add fluid, it leaks out where the dip stick tube enters the pan. And, I cannot find anybody to work on the automatic transmission in this area (AR). Sooo, can anyone tell me what the fluid levels should be and how to check it?? If it becomes too much of a problem I am looking at buying a irs with standard and putting it in.
PS: This is a fully auto 3 speed.
