As the title states I noticed I had a few little silver oil spots under my car a little past the oil pan, kind of scares me. About 1500 miles ago I put amsoil tranny fluid in and shock red in the case but I'm kind of thinking its somthing else. I don't have any tools right now or id jack her up and look. Any ideas?

Update: finally found a flashlight and its torn axle boots, looks like my oil return gasket took a dump on me though
 
i would say check your cv boots for a cut or tare. the moly mix grease in the the axles is silver. i live in monmouth now just outside of salem and have plenty of wrenches and wrench room (out of the rain hehe) if you need to tackle the project ;)

edit: oops problem solved,
