Hey everyone...i've never experienced something like this...
I haven't driven my Expy in a few days (the gas prices are killin me)...and tonite I noticed a puddle of transmission fluid underneath and actually witnessed a few drops actively coming down when I crawled underneath. What on earth!? It was leaking from rear of transmission, looked like the seal on the pan or one of the bolts just above the pan. I checked, they're all tight.
This is the 3rd time it's suddenly leaked a puddle of fluid when parked for a few days. The last two times, which were at least 6 months ago, I've used brake cleaner to clean it all off, and it doesn't seem to leak when i'm driving it regularly. (Yes, I check it often to see if it is.)
Is there some kind of pressure build up when it sits parked for several days? This is so confusing to me.
