NOTE: The PTU  may leak different color fluids, red fluid leak for automatic transmission fluid and brown/black gear lube for PTU  fluid. The PTU  seals prevent these types of fluids from leaking.

This procedure will correct a red fluid leak (automatic transmission fluid) from the intermediate shaft seal on the RH side of the PTU  . Refer to Analysis of Leakage under POWER TRANSFER UNIT (PTU) .
