I checked the oil today and it was much higher than it should be. I assume that it is the hydraulic pump seal has failed and pumping the transmission fluid into the engine oil. I checked the radiator and there is no loss of coolant so I doubt it is coolant.
I assume the following steps should be taken from reading other posts:
Drain engine oil - check it for water.
Check transmission fluid level (there is no site glass just a plug in side of transmission case) to see if it is low.
If low - replace seal or entire pump.
Is there a different, "better" hydraulic pump that fits the L185F?
