Put my Bullitt on the lift today... when I was opening the Fill Scews to check the transmission /rear end oil the was a "air sound " ... like opening a vacuum box. Checked the rear end "pressure drain valve"...it as o.k. no dirt..."free flowing.
But couldn´t find a "vent " at the transmission... the transmission also should have a vent ...right ?
Any ideas ?

Thank you Juegen

No vent at transmission

@ short circuit. Thank you for your advise.

but where comes the vacuum from ...or in other words if there is no vent - one day the seals will fail. I have also two classic Alfa Romeo - both have transmission vents. And if they are clogged...the oily mess takes place - on the garage floor

Greetings Juergen

The rear case seal on the transmission will eventually fail. It will not leak much but you will see it on the crossmember/trans mount.

The rear end should not if the cover is sealed correctly.

from my experience these cars leak most oil at: front crank seal, valve cover, oil pan and transmission case. Not so much at rear main.

Thanks god ..until now there are no signs of oil leaking. But my car has only 18000 something miles on the odometer.
