    Subframe mount leak.
    Just a quick clarification question. I have read a lot of posts about engine mount leaks so I have been inspecting mine regularly.
    Yesterday I though I had an oil leak as I could see fluid on the belly pan at bottom of drivers side. I noticed it wet actually where the sub frame mounts to the body about opposite to where the motor mount is. Is that a hydraulic mount that is leaking or is it likely it's being sprayed on from somewhere else . ?

    Il try and post a pic if you guys aren't sure what I am talking about.

    If the fluid is reddish/purple, it's the engine mounts. If it's not, it's something else.
