its nothing to worry about as long as it stops leaking and your clutch pedal isnt spongy or anything. if it feels good and stops leaking, you're good to go.

well heres how my ordeal went.

put it in, bled it, test drove it. all good. topped off the fluid and went home. on the way the pedal got spongy when i was going to down shift. so while i was on the highway i just pumped the clutch every once in a while. (i live 25 miles from my work) so i get home and pump it for id say 10 minutes. check under it and fluid is dripping. so im like ****, did i tighten the bleeder?? well i let it sit over night and got in it saturday afternoon and drove it to my parents. and it was fine.

that may actually be trans fluid then. they may not have poped that shaft in all the way or the seal may be damaged

the easiest way would be to take the wheel off, undo the lower ball joint and pop it out of the knuckle. theres 3 15's that hold a bracket on the block, take those out and pull the extension tube out. then remove the old seal and pop the new one in.

Well got back from the autoshow..... the new Cobalt is nice, the seats are pretty keww, and the brakes are nice... MOTOR is very cramped so no big turbo conversions.... But all in all it looks like they changed the stuff that needed to be changed!

All in all I can see myself driving a 4dr SS/TC in that slate grey metallic color!
