Coolant Leak
I recently did a oil change and found out that I have a coolant leak somewhere. My whole transmission is tinted green and its sticky all around the lower part of my engine. Does anyone else have this problem? Where would the leak most likely be? Thanks for the responses.

i had a radiator problem back in june where i have white and greenish residue everywhere, and they did a presure check and it was too low so they replaced it. my guess it was leaking from a seams from the top. that was my experience sorry if that didnt help much
Perhaps the heater lines? I tried to find a picture of them, and failed, but they lead into the firewall. I say that because you mentioned that it was on the tranny, so it sounds like it's coming from somewhere in the back of the engine.

My Suby did the same thing, it was o rings leaking next to the oil cooler, or so the dealer told and fixed and then nothing after that.
Cost me $126.00, but could have done it myself

double check the coolent lines from your turbo and also the coolant header tank, sometimes the clamps dont do their thing and have seen some instances where the hoses get brittle. It might be up in this area if you are getting coolant on top of your tranny.
Also, the coolant lines passing though your throttle body may be another area to check
