I own the 5 speed MAZDA Protege 2000, its at about 90,000 Km in Canada the fully loaded version.
Anyway over the past month I noticed there were some spots underneath the car, I though for sure it couldn't be from my car since I take excellent care of it, and just had it serviced for oil and transmission or gear fluid change about a month ago at Mr. Lube.
However I noticed that the drops are coming from my car onto the driveway!
The fluid appears to be similar to the new oil colour. My oil levels are full - no change.
The leak appears to be from directly under the engine but slightly to the left (to drivers side) about
6-12 inches off the center line of the longitude of the car.Is this a transmission fluid leak, oil leak, steering fliud etc.? I can't seem to locate any info on the web. What do you guys think ? I have not checked the tranny fluid on the manual tranmission since I can't. But the oil levels seem above the F line.
Thanks
