Description of the problem	My 2004 toyota camry began leaking transmission fluid from the rear part of the transmission where the two halves of the housing are bolted together. Two mechanics, including one whose expertise is in transmission repair, inspected the transmission and said that the transmission's seal apparently failed. The vehicle has 45,000 miles on it, and stays indoors except for a 12-mile round-trip commute between my home and the local indoor public parking garage. Both estimates for repair were at least $1,500 because the design of the camry does not allow easy access to the transmission, requiring the mechanic to drop the entire frame to access the transmission. The fluid leak is small, likely no more than a half milliliter every 10 days, so the repair has not been done. Both mechanics stated that it is very unusual for a vehicle like this to begin leaking from between the halves of the housing and, based on there being no other physical damage or wear to the area, it was their opinions that this is a manufacturer's defect. The transmission fluid color is still tinged with pink and diffuses well on blotter paper, and the mechanical function of the transmission appears fine.
