Transmission leaking, 2000 Rodeo

Lots of Camrys do this.

The oil will typically leak from the rear main bearing seal between engine and transmission, but that will appear at the bottom of the joint line, and will not reach the exhaust. This leak is expensive to fix and is usually left as is.

A leak from the cam cover gasket can drip into the exhaust.

The other typical leak is from the distributor shaft o-ring seal. This appears at the top of the join line between engine and trans, and can blow back onto the exhaust.

is this a 4x4? do you need to replace the u joint in the hub behind the front wheels? or in the drive shaft?
you can perform either one with some patience and a few tools, the driveshaft is retained by 4 bolts on the rear differential, remove them and pull the drive shaft forward toward transmission,then let down towards ground, and pull the shaft out of the back of transmission,(put down rags as some fluid may leak out).
find a suitable workbench to sit the shaft on preferably in a vise. Next remove the snap rings in the end of the shaft that still retain the u-joint (flat head screwdriver,tapping them out of place with a hammer usually works).
Once the snap rings are removed use a brass drift (solid shaft) or a deep socket that fits the diameter of the joint and doesn't overlap on to the shaft, with some heavy force strike the drift or socket with a hammer repetative working the joint out, when the cap comes off of one side, switch to other side to drive the joint in opposite direction in order to remove other cap, when the other cap comes out the actual joint will slide and remove on an angle.
When installing the new joint put just the joint section in the reciever part of drive shaft, carefully align and install the end caps and drive them in with a socket, once seated install 1 new snap ring, flip the joint over and install the other cap,
take caution to make sure the needle bearings in the cap do not become dislodeged, and that both new snap rings have seated in the groves or you will lose the u-joint after a few miles.

MINE STARTED LEAKING ON A TRIP TO COLORADO LAST WEEK-I WENT AND PURCHASED A 2 1/16 FREEZE PLUG CLEANED WITH BRAKE PARTS CLEANER A LITTLE SILICONE AND TAPPED IT IN -LEAK STOPPED

The attached hub and bearing when installed keeps everything together. After removing all items from the axle outer end the inner shaft is locked in by a c ring. It simply snaps in and the same upon removing the shaft. The c ring will stay on the shaft when taking the axle shaft out

there is a long bush type bearing in this tunnel just at the end were the seal fits in it can were out and let the prop shaft flap about, this in turn rips the seal to bits,,,also the yoke has a polished part on the end that go's over the spline into the end of the gear box tunnel the seal can were a groov into this part, and no amount of new seals will stop it leaking them as the new seal runs in this worn out groov, again ripping it to bits,,,test the long bush type bearing by holding the prop shaft yoke and pushing it up and to the side, if it moves about replace the bush in the end of the tunnel as well,, its a push in fit! with a big hammer!!
if the yoke has a groov in it you need a new prop as all prop shafts are balanced so you can just fit a new yoke it could throw the car up in the air when your driving it down the free way,,,,by shaking it apart
i hope this is of help to you

if it came out of the transmission, then only a snap ring holds it in. all you have to do is fit it back into place, and push it in until you feel it click into place. You will also want to replace the transmission oil that leaked out when the axel came out.

Yours is leaking from the round side servo cover. A quick fix for someone that knows the correct way to put them in. It is held in by a snap ring and a big spring is underneath it pushing it out. So it must be pressed down to remove and replace the snap ring. A common problem for these vehicles. They will drip on the edge of the pan and make it look like it is leaking.

Servo cover needs to be replaced. Its held in with a snap ring. It has a big spring pushing it out and has to be pressed in to remove and install snap ring. Part about $15.00.

If you have never serviced the transmission, it just may be time to have the transmission fluid and filter to be replaced if the transmission fluid is leaking from the transmission pan. If it's leaking from the rear of the transmission where the drive shaft goes in to, then it's the rear seal from the transfer case and the seal needs to be replaced and the transfer case topped off with fluid. If the fluid is leaking from the front of the transmission where the engine connects to the transmission than it's a good chance that it's the torque converter or front pump main seal. The other place that it could be leaking from is the transmission oil lines from the transmission to the cool at the radiator. Please let me know if it's leaks worst when the engine is running or only when your parked for a few hours. Keep me posted, be glad to help. 

That is a common problem on this transmission. You can get one from a transmission parts supply company. It is held in with a snap-ring and it has a big spring pushing it out towards the snap-ring. It must be pressed in while the snap-ring is removed. Its best you get someone that has done this before. It is a servo cover, looks like a small hockey puck. Replace and fill fluid and drive on.
