    Hard to see, but if it looks wet like its seeping, welcome to the club. Mine is seeping, but no big leaks. Just a little oily patch on the sides. I will eventually take it to the dealer for the 15k "service".

    They will either torque it down and see, or change the gasket.

    Sad to see how Toyota continues to cheapen and outsource the drive trains to third world countries. The engineers need to stop obsessing on those ridiculous looking front grills and start investing in higher quality materials for the body, paint, drive train, motor and suspension.
