I had chance to look closer today...

I think I see fluid dripping down from somewhere that I cannot easily see towards the back side of the car. Ultimately, it collects along the backside of the pan where it drips to the ground.

Tried with a hand mirror to see above, but I cannot tell much other than I see fluid along the side of the case. I would think it would be unlikely that fluid could blow up that high, so i beleive the leak is coming from the topside of the tranny somewhere. Can't see much from the engine compartment as the air cleaner is in the way.

It seems the clamps that I can see are screw down type, but I don't know if they are all like this...

If the weather holds, I'll look again tommorow...

Hello all:

I had the car serviced at my local Chrysler dealer last week. (Since the leak was slight, paid some other bills first....) Anyway, the problem was the 'Right Axle Seal'. I don't know if this is the same seal referred to in the prior posts, but it was replaced and I have not seen any recurrence of leaking fluid to this point. The bill was about $160.

Thanks to all who posted, it was all helpful.

Thanks for the wrap-up. Too many times, there's a problem, opinions, then nothing, so you never know what it was.[?]
