transmission fluid puddle

[Big John]

just got back from 2 weeks away to see a puddle of transmission fluid under the 2010 XL. it doesn't look like it emptied but its about a 3 foot wide puddle. it wasn't driven and i haven't seen any leaks in the drive way. I am hoping the cold temps that occurred while i was gone allowed a seal to leak? or is that too wishful? it only got into the low 30s here is NC overnight so i doubt the case cracked.
headed to dealer tomorrow and i hate going in without an idea of what it probably is.

Before driving to the dealer - I would ensure the fluid is at the correct level. You may have lost more than you realize if it began leaking while you were driving it before you parked it.

You may want to have it towed to the dealer to avoid ANY damage that could occur from low fluid - or if the leaks gets worse while you're driving it there.

Good luck.

Just refill it and see where it leaks. Maybe you could fix it yourself. It might just be a simple repair.

More than likely the Bulkhead connector on the rear top right of the transmission is leaking, very common issue. Mine is leaking as well. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000NTF1BG

Mine only leaked under 32 degrees
