Oil leaking out of speedometer sensor

A&Q about 350Z
Q:

hi all,

Just recently I noticed that the transmission oil is leaking out of the speedometer sensor. (95 honda civic LX)
I did notice the speedometer is not working steadily recently, however no plan to replace it since I can still read the speed by watching RPM.
Does this leak matter? Will it affect other parts (transimission losing oil)?

Thank you!
A:

Eventually it will cause problems, like if all the tranny fluid leaks out. Most likely just need to replace the sensor or if there is a seal around it, may just need to be replaced.
A:

The vss has an oring seal around it I'm pretty sure, just pop it out and replace the oring, probably less than $1.
