Gear Oil Leak...

I've noticed quite a bit of gear oil on my driveway lately... I haven't crawled under the car yet (tomorrow), but are there any particular common spots where gear oil would leak from the tranny... besides the drain/check plugs.

Thanks,
Josh

the trans can leak from many different places. i would get under there soon and check/ top off your fluid as you don't want to buy a new trans if it is something as simple as the tail seal.
if you cant spot the source of the leak because there is allot of oil, you may need to clean the trans then run the car and the fresh oil should be easy to spot
