It would appear our DCT is made out of swiss cheese. My side pan has developed a leak and it was repaired 3 times to no avail.

After the 3rd time, the leak stopped for a while but came back after an outstation drive for about 1,200 km at a somewhat spirited pace.

The leak is very minor, a weep, without any dripping onto the undercovers. Workshop says not to worry and check transmission oil levels once a year should be fine.

Don't know if I'm comfortable with leaving it like this or get it fixed again. What do you guys think?

Cheers,
Howie
