Leak of some sort

Click image to enlarge

Firstly, Merry Christmas all!

This is my first post so I hope I'm in the right place.

I have recently become the proud owner of a 2009 Discovery 3 2.7TDV6 and I absolutely love this vehicle.

I noticed the other night some sort of leak can any one advise on the picture attached. I havent examined the area just yet and any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Yeah it looks to be the pipe from the auto transmission to the oil cooler in the radiator is leaking at the jubilee clip.

Don't ignore it as a low oil level in the transmission is detrimental. If you clean up the area and try tightening the clip that may be all that is needed, but keep an eye on it in case the pipe needs replacing.

Ideally the transmission oil level needs to be checked (or renewed!) but that's for another day perhaps. Thumbs Up

Ps. Fill out your profile completely so members can see exactly what vehicle you have and it will make it easier to offer assistance and advice! yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

Thanks PROFSR G for the reply, I will definitely look at this tomorrow.

Is it safe to mix transmission oil to top up and what brand would you recommend for this also how much oil does it take when servicing gear box? 2009 Discovery 3 GS 2.7 TDV6 Automatic
