So yesterday for the first time in months I decide to clean my garage and pulled me Jaggies out to sweep the floor. I notice a small, 4 inch diameter, puddle of tranny fluid under my 99. First time I have noticed anything in the 6 months I have owned it but I dont really look for leaks.

So my question is, could this be a leaking pan gasket ? I have had american cars do this and a quick torque of the bolts has fixed it. Can I do this on my Jag or is it something more to worry about ? I didnt check the fluid level but that doesnt matter, refilling it wont fix the leak.

Any info would be appreciated.

TIA

 

There are several fluids that can leak. The ZF 5HP24 fluid is NOT red unless someone has put red fluid in it (not correct). The PAS fluid is red (DEXRON) so maybe that is what you see??????

I would def take a look under there and see if you can locate where the fluid is dripping off and what color it appears to be.
