Leaking fluid above driveshaft I was informed by my step dad that i was leaving oil/fluid marks in the driveway when I got home and I promptly checked under my car. Nothing around the engine, so I moved back to the diff and apparently I am having some crazy oil/fluid leak that is around my drive shaft/torque arm area. The color is a really dark amber (dirty) and is most likely diff fluid, but I felt around as much as I could and couldn't find a leak spot, definitely not from the diff cover. It looks like the oil/fluid is hitting the underside of the car right above where the drive shaft and differential meet and it is leaking on my exhaust pipe and down both sides onto the ground. The car drives the same way it did the past three months I've owned it, strong, and no weird noises or anything. I have a video I will post probably later tonight, won't be great quality but I was squeezing under my car with no jacks. Any help figuring out what is leaking would be much appreciated. Thanks!
