Green oily liquid under car, what is it?

[TooFastTooG]

Ok so this sounds like such a noon question, but I recently picked up a deal on a 95 Talon tsi awd with a 6bolt swap. And have been working alot, so ive only been able to look real quick under the car.

It is leaking a very light green oily substance. Now it doesnt feel watery, its like oil, but not brown or black, and its leaking alot. I always thought tranny fluid was red. I checked engine oil, brake, clutch fluid and antifreeze levels, all fine.

Any companies have green tranny fluid? Cause i think it might be that??

One clue is to observe where from under the car it drips oil. The clutch in my car has light green hydraulic oil.

Yeah its coming from the transmission side of the car, althought i cannot clearly see where it is dripping from, it seems to collect at the bottom of the car, but the leak seems to be higher up.

It's Prestone. Do a pressure test on your cooling system. Suspect heater hoses.

Many trans fluids are green, some BG's for example.

hey man this is kevin, you ####ed up the 2g already? Its not trans fluid, I put syncromesh in it. Its most likely the heater hoses we reused the old ones when we did the swap, and fix your info on your profile its a walbro 255 not 190

Hey toofast i put the 6-bolt in that car. The fluid you see is coolant its coming from the lines that feed the oil cooler behind the oil filter. They needed replacing bad but i never got to finish it up before he sold it. The one thats leaking is like 8 inches long and faces the ground.
