DIP STICK KEEPS BLOWING OUT

Have a Doosan that the dipstick keeps blowing out and leaking fluid everywhere, can not find a breather any where on the trans end, anyone come across this before, I feel there is an internal issue with the transmission, but seems weird no breather.

if the transmission case has no breather on it then the breather is probably in the dipstick itself or the filler cap (if it has one separately from the dipstick tube)

plus as was mentioned , i too have seen factory fixes that included adding a hose with a breather on it that is incorporated into the dipstick or extending the origional breather up higher than first designed.

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
