Kinda worried about perky's car though. Is it trans fluid or oil? Either way, get it checked out asap. Oil as long as it's coming from the drain bolt is either no crush washer or not torqued to specs. Trans fluid may be cause for worry.

My transmission oil pan has been leaking for a while now. Its a small one, and might replace the seal soon but I cringe at the thought of another "Valdez" incident.

Ahh. Good catch. I just noticed now this was posted in January. I thought we were talking about the new car!
