Hi.

Does anyone have suggestions how to stop or reduce a transmission
gasket leakage? I have noticed some leaking at the bottom of the
transmission casing where the two halves join.

Thanks.

That depends on the model and year. On the manual transmission in many
models there is no gasket between the two halves of the transmission case.

The color is red. It is a 2003 Accord 4 cyl Auto. There are no
mechanical complaints i.e. it shifts as it did when it was new. I am
expecting a bit of leakage since the car is over 300,000Km. The leak
is begining to develop at the lowest part of the transmission casing.
This is not major. I am just don't want it to begin dripping on my
driveway.

you can try changing the output seals, but i doubt they're the culprit.
if so, not much you can do short of a rebuild.

avoid the so-called sealing additives. just keep the fluid topped up
and fresh.
