Now, to the thread topic. I noticed some serious sludge underneath. Check out these pics, does this look like a leaking transmission? (obviously its an steptronic)

I have a 1 month warranty from where I bought it but I think its for mechanical breakdown coverage in which all transmission related parts are covered. I do plan to take this to local BMW shop, but if they can't fix it under this warranty, I might take other actions.

-Rear main seal or turbo feed/return lines
