Mine's been leaking for 160,000 miles, but not by much. Usaul cause is not using the proper grade fluid. Pentosin CHF 11S, anything else rots the seals. Mine had wrong stuff in there. Caught it jsut in time.

Now I top-up every 2000 miles or once amonth. If you've not let it get too bad, a bottle of fiuld every six months is cheaper than a rack.

I put a Magnefine in mine 3/8" and that also helped. (if you drive it, put one on your auto too).
