    Hey guys, i noticed a small, very slowly dripping leak coming from somewhere between my Y pipe and my trans pan obviously on the front passenger side of my car. It's leaking thick oil with a green tinge. I didn't think it would be coolant as it's thicker than coolant but still has a green tinge to it.

    Any idea's what this could be? Last time there was a leak, it was just a loose radiator hose leaking coolant across the top of my rocker covers and down the back of my engine. But i have checked all the hoses and they are all tight.

    I didn't think coolant thickened up all that much when going through the cooling system, but what else could it be?

    Cheers, Coby. :thumbsup:

    Just had a think about this, if it's a thich greeny fluid, i'm assuming it's brake fluid.

    Where would brake fluid be leaking from in between my Y pipe and trans pan?????

    Can anyone help? Would there be a coolant line loose somewhere? If my car is parked on a slight slant to the right, the leakage drips from up from the right side of my trans pan, if parked on a slight left slope, if will drip from up from the left side of my trans pan, but it's coming from somewhere above it. Up towards the engine.
