So, I got my stock pump today, threw that in after work, picked up a serpentine belt and some brake cleaner for the IM for the OCC install on Thursday, and decided to get an oil change at Valvoline while I was at it as it was a bit overdue. I also got the "clicking" noise on the STOCK pump that people talk/complain about on some UPGRADED pumps, and I took a video of that (for later). So, I've never checked out under the car before for leaks (had my old mech do the exhaust + TP), and every time it's been on jacks, I always forget to check under there for leaks. I know nothing about transmissions and the PTO other than some (all??)leak.
Well, while I was at Valvoline I remembered about the leaky PTO issue for whatever reason, and I asked the dude underground to take a peak, LOL!!! After a minute of poking around, he was like 'yeah, something is leaking.' So, the dude was cool enough to let me trek under there (I almost ate it, lol), and I just happened to have my good camera on me from taking the hpfp 'clicking sound' so I snapped a few pics. I actually took a brief vid first by accident, because it was still set on video from the fuel pump about a half hour before! lol I attached the vid because the pics make it look not as bad for whatever reason.
I'm clueless as to what's going on down there, and I'm not sure how bad this is. Is this the 'average leaky PTO' or is this super bad, or is this something else leaking? I'm under warranty, but I'm not reverting to stock... I will bring it in to the dealer and make them fix if I need to, even if I get 'flagged' or whatever they call it.
CHECK OUT THE SHORT VIDEO... LOOK AT THIS LEAKY SHIT!!! LOL!!
Here's some pics:
What do you guys think?? How bad is this, and how soon do I need to get it checked out?
As always, thanks a lot!!
PS. Although I've had a couple strokes of bad "luck" lately, I consider this my lucky to have remember to check this today, because I always forget!
