Also you can use special additives which you can find at local stores. Additives have positive and negative features. Positive: if the leak is not serious it will seal it and save your time and money. But if the transmission leaks very bad you have to do what was recommended before. Negative: if you live in any state with extremely low temperatures it's not recommended to use additives because it changes Transmission Fluid viscosity (makes it more viscous) and it can damage the transmission.

Answeryou should start by finding where the leak is coming from. Then clean the transmission with brake clean or something similar and start the car to let the fluid run and confirm the leak is from the suspected area. Then it should only take a gasket or seal to fix the problem
