I have an HRC2163HXA Seriel No: MAKA-1069147 that has a leaky transmission. I replaced both transmission axle seals and wiped down everything. I filled up the case with Honda hydrostatic fluid. The next day the floor has a puddle of fluid on it and the housing is wet with fluid. Any suggestions where the fluid could be leaking from? It's not coming from the axle seals.

Thanks.

Honda issued a service bulletin back in 2012 for an issue with torn / damaged gaskets, although your unit was made BEFORE the affected units.

Drop me a private message and I'll email you the bulletin as an FYI.
