Oil Leak?

Oil is slowly dripping off the bottom of my transmission. If the car sits for a week I would say that there would be a quarter size oil spot. Has anyone had a similar leak or any ideas what it may be?

I'd bet you have the common Intake Manifold Leak.

I agree. My manifold leak did exactly as you described. To double check, reach around the back on the passenger side of the manifold and feel for oil.

I'm with everybody else. Not hard to fix, takes about 4 hours to get it all done, and then just let it sit for 24 hours to let the sealant cure and you are done.
