It can happen if it's leaking from there. Lets hope coolant hasn't infected the tranny.

Well-I pulled the tranny dipstick and it looked good, clean reddish, and what i see in the rad is like 1 or 2 small little tiny oily particles floating around in there, i was thinking could it be the 2 bottles of water wetter? The oil checked out clean as well. Something is up, Im not sure WTF it is, What do ya think 2 this point?
Should i drain all the antifreeze and replace it with fresh stuff, or just disconnect the tranny to the rad to eliniate that as a problem.

Thanks Ant

The coolant level hasnt dropped any at all. Its always full. some weird crap....What can be causing this tiny oil particles, You can really see it with a flashlight only and you have to look real hard outside in direct light. Could it just be the water wetter?
