Default 2001 Quattro Transmission Question

I have an 01 Quattro Tip. Quick question. Is there a seal in the front of the tranny that could blow out? I have been having issues with my transmission lately it leaks all of the fluid out after I fill it up and its not coming from the pan or fill plug. It only seems to do it after being warmed up and driving it. It doesn't leak at idle unless it's been driven. Or maybe a hose thats connected to the transmission that could have came loose? Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Yes, there is a seal in the front. Some recommend it be changed when you do your clutch, though I didn't do that.


EDIT: Actually, maybe not for auto/tip... I only see output shaft seals for those on ECS. Automatic transmissions are not my thing...

My output seal blew out recently too, and it just leaked oil all over the place. Having it repaired today. I cant tell if its diff or tranny fluid though
