Auto gearbox leak

My auto box is leaking. On the nearside above the drain / dipstick there is a 2-3 inch round 'thingy' (inspection hole?) held in place by a big circlip. Well thats where it's seeping from ! I've not took it off yet to investigate. Any advice welcome. Cheers in advance, John.

reliable mechanic wanted

Hi Folks, I have a 1990 T25 1.9 Petrol with a fuelling / carb problem. I'm new to the High Wycombe area so can anyone recommend a garage around here who have the right gear and the knowledge to help me out. I know there's the yellow pages but thought ask the forum. Cheers, John.
