    Howdy ya'll,

    I was wondering if you guys could help me real quick. I have a 2005 Tacoma, 4WD. I was looking under it this morning and notice some shiny fluid, not a lot, but enough to have some drip onto my oil filter and my transmission case (which has made it look like my transmission may have a valve leak). I'm confused as to where it maybe coming from. I posted a picture for some help. On the left is my oil filter, as you can probably tell.

    I appreciate your help!

    Kurt

    It could be, although it is only in that location. I had my valve cover gasket replaced (which was leaking before) along with a bunch of other valves when I got my timing chain replaced in early June.
