C5 2000 rear end seeping

Have a 2000 with automatic, started her up yesterday after 3 months setting due to cold and snow. Backed out of the garage went to close the door and noticed what appears to be fluid coming from rear end. Spots were about 1/2 dollar in size. Had about 3 of those with some smaller ones where I turned the car around in the driveway. The seeping stopped after the car warmed up. Any thoughts.

It's called "leaky butt". Common issue. Seals or possibly stuck vent. Here is one post, a search for leaky butt will bring up many.
