Oil Leak got worse!!!
 
My car was leaking ATF all over the floor where it was parked when I turned the car on.....it like flung oil to the passenger side on the exhaust pipe and started smoking......now I looked under the car and it is all oily....but I checked the tranny oil level and it was fine!!! I checked the engine oil and I need like 2 quarts, yeah the engine oil leaks too from th oil pan gasket but why wouldn't my tranny need oil???...whats going on here???......AARON

How do you know it's leaking atf? Wouldn't you think it's leaking engine oil if that is low and the tranny is not?

yeah
 
yeah, but the amount of ATF it leaked was at least 1/4 of a quart....and the engine oil is low because it has a oil pn gaket leak..and the oil was red not caramel colored....AARON

Top everything off, clean everything up under the car, run the car for a while and watch where it leaks from. Sounds like a big leak that should be easy to see.

Better check more often and don't let it get so low if you want it to last.

Might check the power steering pump also...just a thought!
