Hi:

If there is still a leak, I would suggest getting an new seal from a chrysler dealer. There really isn't anything in there that would cause the problem. Also, when you remove the housing, make sure to check for cracks. If I recall, they are made from pot aluminum which can crack easily or warp. Let me know what you find.
