leaky (washing machine) transmission

When a washer transmission starts leaking oil its on its way out. You can buy new transmissions but might not be worth it due to its age. You can buy just about any part for washer and dryers and they are really simple to repair. Most parts are really cheap too, transmission is an exception. If you buy new stay away from the high efficiency ones, they really suck. Seems most of them have issues spinning the clothes out. I just junked one that was only a couple years old for that problem.
