Guys,

While changing the final front pads on my brembos, I noticed a few drips of oil coming from underneath my car....

I smelled it and I think it is Synchromesh 6mt transmission fluid. I checked the bolt and the level is OK and it seems to be secure.

But where the hell could this leak be coming from? Does this sometimes just randomly leak out? What should I do?

 

Brake fluid resivour. I'll bet there's a mess of it all about the res and the area beneath.

 

Gooood call. Phew!

 

 

Yeah, especially if you've ever topped off your brake fluid, which you're not supposed to do. Pushing the brake pistons back in will force the fluid back into the reservoir and can cause it to overflow.
