Angry My Tranny leaks and I don't know why !

New pan gasket, new nylon washers for the drain/dip stick, and JB weld on inside of drain thread thingy (thinking that the brazing was cracked, although it looked perfect).
The pan stays dry, but the drain/dip stick leaks...

I am starting to think the dip stick tube is faulty!

What the HEY?

Hi Ed,my 300D does the same thing.I get just a drip at the dipstick/pan bolt,had it before I did the tran service and it still leaks just a little(a spot the size of a quarter overnight).Maybe there is some bizzare MB way to install the pan and bolt,similar to the cam cover gasket(which is now leaking like a sieve on my car ).Anyone know?
