    Noticed some gunk under the engine. Also noticed my power steering fluid seems to be getting lower. I've checked all the fittings and hoses I can under there but it all looks clean. What are your thoughts?

    I'm starting to agree. Just cleaned everything down there. Looked around at the belts and timing cover (I think) and didn't see anything there. Hoping it's not the timing cover. Will update if there is anything after a few hundred miles.
