TSB - Tranny Leak

I just looked at all the TSB's and I could not find the TSB number for the O ring Transmission issue. I am in Ocean City NJ on vacation and I just found that my 2006 300C 5.7 seems to be leaking redish/pink fluid, and maybe some other fluid too? I took some pictures with my phone I was hoping to confirm with you guys that this is a TSB and what the TSB number is. Thank you for any help.

Tranny Leak Pictures.

In the picture below the spot at the bottom is the red/pink fluid and I am not sure if the spot in the front could be engine oil or power steering fluid?

hmm... my transmission leaked. if its running dry the car will have a hard shift then lose power but still rev almost like you're in neutral after stepping on it. it happened to me. the dealer should fix it under warranty. get it done ASAP before your car dies while you're trying to pass someone. i've had some close calls where i coulda lost more than a fender.

I made it back to PA, I have an appointment at my dealership tomorrow, Friday, to get this fixed. Hope this is the last time I see a puddle of tranny fluid under my car. I only have 18,800 miles, wasn't expecting this to happend yet, although I have heard other members have had this happen even sooner, so I guess I'm lucky...?

Tranny leak fixed but......

I had mine fixed, but now no ESP light on or off (cant tell) and shifts wierd...like an old car with bands slipping.......the logic is off for sure.
Do they re-flash the tranny when they fix the TSB leak????

Mine leaked too. Was some electrical connector.

No TSB that I can find, but the dealer service guy said it was common.

It only took them about 1/2 hour to change the o-ring on my car and it's never leaked since. Don't worry too much about it - easy fix.

There IS a TSB (don't have time to search right now) but you don't need that to take the car in and have it fixed. Tell them the tranny is leaking and they WILL know all about it. It is so common a problem that there is no chance they won't know what it is and they should have piles of the O-rings in stock.
