I bought my car in for oil change today and they said they found oil leak and transimission leak and is marked on paper... I checked at the paper and it said, Pre-change oil level = Full, but found oil leak????? Also, they said they found transimission leak, but my transimission fluid level is same as 2 years ago when I replaced it, the color is still red... After I drive my car back home, and I look under the car, I saw 2 drops of oil hanging beneath the oil pan, but it doesn't drop, I didn't touch it cuz I did not lift up the car... I'm confused now...

hey dude, I JUST got done having the same trouble with my own Protege. First I found out it was coming from the oil pan, so I resealed it with the same stuff that Mazda uses...But then it kept leaking, so naturally I was pissed. Then I put it on the lift at my past roomate's job, and I found it was actually a cam seal. So I replaced the cam seals and went ahead and got a new timing belt in there...You might want to go ahead and get the entire underside of your car and engine cleaned real well, cause I had to do that to find out where the oil leak was coming from before I put it on the lift a second time. You may not be leaking oil still, it may just be all over the place and it's still burning off.
