I noticed this oil leak this morning. This is the first time I'm seeing a leak from the rear. What do you think this is?

let's see, the only fluids that I can think of that might be back there is fuel from a fuel filter and maybe brake fluid for the rears. Check the smell of it.

It definitely does not smell like fuel.

Open up the trunk, lift off the carpet see if you might have spill a bottle of tranny fluid.

looks like tranny fluid to me - I think it was spilled either IN the car or under the hood - The place it is leaking from is weird

Get the car either on a lift or jack stands to inspect the underbody. You may have run over a vast amount of fluid or it is spraying out somewhere and coming down the body line underneath. More than likely something is leaking in the trunk.

Looks like it might be tranny fluid or gas. Is there a line running under it? Or could you possibly be leaking oil rom the engine and its getting caught in the body side moldings? Weird spot to be leaking though since I didn't see lines in the photos.

There is a small drain line on each end of the rear quarter panels, right next to the spot you circled in the picture. Check and see i anything leaked into the trunk.

Nevermind... tranny fluid got spilled and I didn't check under the carpet before posting the pic. It's leaking from the drain line that captainsc mentioned. Now I have alot of spilled tranny fluid to take care of

Thanks everyone for your inputs.
