Hello,
This is a 96 xj, 183,000 miles. Today I noticed an oily substance on the body behind the wheel. Looking further, there's about a 4 inch wide strip of the same around the inside of the fender from front to back. I do have a little leak at the rear main seal and a little weeping at the filter mount but I can't figure out where this is coming from. The only thing I haven't checked is the trans fluid but I can't see anything amiss under the jeep. All the other fluids look good. I thought it might be from the rear main seal but it's just in the wheel well? Has anyone ever seen this or know what it might be?
Thanks,
Jeff
