Hi just got my surf 3.0 ssrx auto but have noticed a few drops of what smells like atf fluid ( light brown, engine oil is normally a lot darker) have looked under neath and it appears to come from the back of the sump guard ,far right hand corner as you look at the front of the vehicle.I presume it must drop down from above onto plate and when i looked under neath i can see evidence of dirty oil , i think that it has been like this for some time the mileage is 55,000m and from looking at the rest of the underneath no corrosion etc i would imagine this to be genuine , also noticed lots of round stickers in the fuel flap any idea ,would these be service stickers for oil and filter changes .Thanks for any replies.

from the position you are talking about sounds more like a leaking front diff. May be that the diff breather is blocked which will often cause the outer seals to weap.

oil leak
Hi thanks for the reply i think that you may well be right only just got the surf and checked atf fluid and power steering fluid different colour (red and different taste) not engine oil as even though changed is too dark.The oil is light brown and smells different, if it is the diff seals is this difficult and expensive to repair. thanks.Comment
