    I took the car in and had to take it to the dealership...had to take it to the closest place and the dealership was that.

    they found a trans leak and had to replace a brake pad...
    well my car is still leaking...

    1. Im seeing a light redish fluid under the middle of the enigne (rough area). Is that trans fluid?

    2. There is a lot of what looks like water leaking out...i tried smelling it and it did not smell like anything...it could be rain water collected underneath the car like in the bumper and stuff but i have never noticed this much water runnoff from the car. (could this be brake fluid?)

    So...im gona take it in to the dealership tomorrow...just wanted to see what you guys think...

    my car was in the dealership about a week and a half ago...i shouldnt have to pay anything if it is indeed a trans leak as thats what they were supposed to fix the 1st time??

    thanks so much

    red fluid is if im correct is power sterring, or coolant maybe. The tranny fluid is mineral based so its probally going to be like a clearish brown color, kindoflikemotorold...spacebar..justbroke....errrr
