tranny cooler ? i got a manual not auto .

 

[darkside03gt]

didnt know that. you got other problems then bro.

 

[jprovence]

still could be tranny fliud since the manual is filled with auto fluid anyways. Maybe just a leak in the drain plug

+1 I wouldn't drive it until you put it up on jacks and find that leak. Tranny's are expensive.

When you say your leak is at a rubber boot are you talking about the steering rack? pics would help. Is the leak more in the front or middle of the car?

 

[old_blue]

+1 probably power steering rack (if it is toward the front). seals on your rack are probably gone. I guess it could also be a hose even though they are on the driver side but I guess the fluid could run down to the pass. side via the rack of one of the lines.

Its either power steering fluid or tranny fluid

Pray that it's power steering fluid...

I very sure that is power steering fluid, how hard is to fix the leak ?

How can we answer that question? We don't even know what's broken. Take some pics or something, please.
