Fluid leak! What is it?????
Went for a little ride this AM and came back and parked the car in the drive while I cleaned it up. About 30 minutes late I pull into the garage and noticed a 5 inch circle of pinkish red fluid under the rear drivers side where it was parked. Appears to be dripping off the rear cross member. What is the diagnosis???? I have extended warranty thank heavens!

Give it the sniff test. If it smells more like gear lube then it's probably the left side differential seal. HTH
