Need more info but most likely need new tranny. Look into swapping a Honda accord v6 tranny in from 06-07. There's many threads on it here.

A pic could come in handy! Have you located the source of the leaking? Start by Doing that.

So I just traded my motorcycle for a 2000 tl. We traded in miami, I put 300 mileson thecarwith no problems. As I was driving it back to orlando on the highway about an hour in tranny fluid was leaking on the drivers side.it leaked all over the side of the car and the people who were following behind me. I thought it was the axle seal so I replaced them both. Back on the highway and about an hour into the drive same thing happened.

Does this mean my differential bearing is gone? What else could it be? Axle?

As long as the car is not on the highway it does not leak. I drove the car for 2 hours running errands and no leaks but as soon as I.drive on the highway for an hour or two there goes all the tranny fluid.

Please help thanx in advanced

Have you looked to see where the fluid is coming from? You should be able to see fluid stains where the leak originates from.
