Answer 1

Uh-oh.-Trouble! Hie thee to your local Auto Repair Shop- & PRAY it isn't what I THINK it is... :0  Good luck!  

Answer 2

its leaking red transmission fluid because transmission fluid is red, LOL but seriously crawl under there and see where its coming from, it could be a simple fix, and it could be an expensive fix, you never know till you look

Answer 3

you probably blew the transmission filter gasket its a cheap and easy fix if you know anyone who knows stuff about trans. you should have them come over and look at it for you but you shouldnt drive it if you didnt already know because you will fry your trans. and after your done buy some more trans fluid to put back in to fill it to the right level

Answer 4

send your van to car workshop...ask them to see where the leaking come from,maybe the oil seal or the gear speed.that is the only way.

if you dont care about it,your van will get more bad problem.

Answer 5

try and see if you can see the area its coming from ,usually a leak that leaves a puddle is a seal ,like the front main seal or the rear one,its possible also that the pan gasket has started leaking from it,they will do this  when they get older,you,ll have to see where its coming from first to determine a cost on repairing it,good luck .

Answer 6

A seal has dried up and need to be replaced
