5star -> Red stuff leaking out under car all over?? (9/27/2007 2:31:33 PM)

When i got my car i seen on teh frame and motor that their was some oil on it. but it wasnt really dripping. Well i only put like 300 miles on it since i got it and the oil leak was getting a little worse leaving l;ittle spots under it. Well now last time i drove it i parked it and notaced it was leaking alot. Well i looked under it today and its all over all under the motor is covered and all teh way to teh back to it ran down the frame. But i touched it "and" its oil and red stuff. I think its mostly teh red stuff thats leaking. Whats the red stuff and where is my leaks coming from probably?

probably a bad gasket somewhere, or your drain plug isnt tight enough

tranny fluid for sure..   Check by your axles where they go into the tranny..

could it be from shifting it like a manual? I run it to about 5-6000 b4 shiftin.

yes. dont do that


5star -> RE: Red stuff leaking out under car all over?? (9/27/2007 7:24:13 PM)

how can it be bad. If its so bad theirs no way they would give you that option on a auto car. And theirs no way its close to the  same as shifting a manual with out the clutch

first off, shifting a manual without the clutch is bad for your transmission, second off, the cars that come with the sporttronic shifting option are made to be shifted like that. your automatic is made to shift on its own. manually shifting an automatic creates unnessicary heat and wear on the transmission fluid and transmission itself
