I would stay away from the "OIL LEAK FIX IN A CAN"! Ask yourself how
does it work? By attacking the rubber/neoprene in the seal. Causing it to
swell and reseal............well what do you think happens to the seals that
are good? Its not a long term repair, more of a stop gap patch fix till you
get somewhere to have a "proper repair" done.
    I read a report by GM on just such "quick fix's" on transmissions. Bad
thing is most of that stuff works. Short term anyway.
