I drive a 98 accord 4 cylinder, automatic.

while washing the car today, I notice a red fluid leaking....its all over my suspension components on the passenger side. I had a oil changed 500 miles ago and I think they refilled my transmission fluid also (not positively sure)....should I be worried and take it to the honda dealership immediately? or is it possible a overfill? I checked the dipstick and it is in the XXXX spot and the transmission seems to be shifiting smoothly .....if I have never seen that leak,...i would of never suspected of something wrong.

Well, the xxxx spot isn't a spot really. The bottom of that area is the minimum your fluid should be. Just like an oil dipstick. As long as you're not getting low on fluid you're fine.

But you might want to find where that fluid is coming from.

 

may be an axle seal, but u should have it checked out to be sure
