Ok so, as you can see in the picture i have fluid leaking from this hole on the bottom of my transmission. http://i542.photobucket.com/albums/gg436/Fuzzy1119/IMG00028-20110127-1703.jpg

i have a feeling im missing two bolts that go there? when ever im able to build up clutch pressure this is where is seems to leak from. Ill lose all the pressure overnight, i originally though it was the slave cylinder, but there is no fluid leaking from it, and when i fill the fluid reservoir back up after a bazillion pumps of the clutch it will build the pressure back up all the way, but it leaks from that hole. So a little more info on it! its threaded on the inside and the outside is all scratched in a circular pattern like there was something there before. Any pictures of this area would be extremely helpful, or any information anyone knows is very helpful thanks.

to be honest with you. i have no idea what i am looking at. if you can get beter pictures.
the collant kind of run everywhere. it might be from yoru water pump and you think it is coming from the trans. but where it is located. i will say it is coming from your heater core.
when the heater core start leaking. there is a drain hose that is on the top of the trans inside the car and it will drip right on the tarns. i have done at least 5 heater core swaped this winter. pain in the ass to do. about 15 hours worth of work if you doing right and make sure to put everything back together.

are you smelling any leak inside the car ? and does your windshield get fogy when you put the heat on ? then yes it is your heater core.

I made a huge mistake when i typed this up, the fluid is brake fluid not coolant, these holes are about 1.5 feet towards the front of the car in relation to the transmission drain. The holes are very close to the clutch sorry for the mistake

Did you remove the clutch slave to check? I don't think it can be anything else really.

I'm removing the slave and replacing it today, called a local place and they said they couldn't think of anything else it could be, apparently that area wont cause the leak, but its dripping down from the slave
