Re: 99 Astro AWD Black Fluid Leak Right Rear Wheel
It can only be one of two things-- brake fluid or rear end gear oil- I would say it is brake fluid- is your reservoir low? is the brake light on? probably have a wheel cylinder leaking- or over extended- have you recently had brake work done on the rear? if so- it may not have been put back together properly.....Gear oil is a long shot-- would have to be an axle seal- but they don't usually go bad......
