It won't be leaking antifreeze.
Check the hoses that goto the head and t-stat right behind the head above the tranny. You'll find a crack in the hose or leak in the connection I'll bet.

Agreed. Coolant Wont be flowing through the tranny, it has to be dripping on it from somewhere else

maybe it's tranny fluid.....pink stuff normally.
one way to tell is taste it, if it kinda tastes sweet then it's antifreeze. But spit cause it's poisonous and will make you blind. lol, so just joking, please don't taste anything.

I seem to remember that they sent fluid out for cooling(ie: through radiator), not bring coolant in.

Please remove yourself from this thread. You clearly do not know what you are talking about. Would you bet me say 5 million dollars that you are wrong? If so, I will personally come to where you live, disassemble a Honda automatic transmission in front of you, and ask you to show me where coolant flows through it.
The "resovoir" on the bottom of the radiator IS TO COOL THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID... damn it.

auto tranny fluid passes through a special resivoir found only on auto radiators. Auto trans fluid is red. You guys do realize that they have certain types of antifreeze that isn't neon green, right? i've used a red/purple prestone one before. maybe there's a confusion.
edit: perhaps he's using heavy duty anti-freeze?

Re: my sisters AUTO TRANNY leaking antifreeze...possibly problems? (old man neri)
top rad. hose was leaking but showed no visible signs of it... ran down cracks and made it very difficult to tell where the fluid was coming from... and checking all the clapms i found that the upper hose wasnt even clamed tightly enough to hold any pressure...piissed me off it was so simple
