I thougt it was the Lower intake Mantifold gasket leaking and it wasnt...this is what the invoice said that I got back from the mechanic.
-----------------------
Analyze and report for red colored fluid found under vehicle, customer suspects engine coolant leak.
- Raise on Hoist, inspect for leaks,install engine coolantpressure tester, no leaks found. Engine coolant level correct. Inpsect Auto Trans fluid level, OK. Degrease and wash under and top of engine, reinspect, found seapage at transmission oil cooler hose, rear of intake manifold and oil pump drive seal, no major leaks at this time, advise.
-----------------------
So my question is seapage at transmission oil cooler hose....should I get the hose replaced??? has anyone else had similar minor leaks??
The mechanic said to come back eventually I will need a new oil pump drive seal etc...
Does this sound Right??? I do have a minor leak on the garage floor, it seems to be oil colored and sometimes its red...so I am not sure what to think.
