Default trans seeping?

I've noticed I may have the famous o-ring connector weeping problem. Since the car is 10 years old, and the dipstick cap looks original, would anyone hazard a guesstimate as to how much fluid might have been lost over the years?

You did say transmission? Crossfire did not come with a transmission dip stick. If it has one someone installed it.

right. I meant that the cap which sealed the transmission filler tube was still in place. there is no dipstick installed.

There was a TSB on the leakage and Chrysler fixed it, the car was under warranty. When it started to leak there was a puddle of tranny fluid that wasn't there the day before. I got it fixed right away. It doesn't matter how much is lost as you don't know when the leak started, take care of it before it becomes a real problem.

Yep, I understand it needs fixing. I was asking for loss of fluid guesses. Never mind :-)

No way to guess the ATF level. You can buy the correct dipstick on ebay for just $10.
