I had my water pump fail on me a week ago and finally have it replaced along with oil change and new plugs. Now I am trying to find the leak that mysteriously materialized after I limped the x home from the pump failure.
This a pic of the underside of the transmission. The circled part is where the leak appears to be coming from. I wiped it all down and put the plate back on and when I backed it out of the drive there was a significant drip from the pan already from just that short amount of driving.
It looks like regular oil though and not transmission fluid? I can't find a diagram for that part of the transmission anywhere to identify the part. Any ideas? I don't see any way the pump failure would be related to this. Just a coincidence? Vehicle has 106k miles.
