Hello,

I Have a 2003 Pathfinder 3.5l 4wd 203K miles

I just recently changed the transmission fluid and filter then a few weeks later i drained and filled again to replace more of the fluid.

I used Nissans Matic D

However, I am experiencing a leak of ATF out of the weep hole at the bell housing.

When the car is on and in gear ATF flows out of it. Once the Car is off it slowly drips out.

I think It may be a seal. And i know its ATF not engine oil. Any ideas will help!

More than likely, that's your RMS that is leaking. It's a rather large job that you're better off having a shop do.
You might want to try the liqui moly oil saver and see if helps any at all. But given that you state it is flowing out, tells me that the RMS is in need of replacement.
