i need help!!!

Ok so i think i have a major problem...its hard to explain..when i start off and move like a foot the car feels like its getting stuck on something and then it will jump and go but it feels like something is banging by the front right wheel...almost like everytime the wheel rotates something metal is hitting something...if that makes sense...after i got out of my car i find its leaking a dark green fluid???(maybe transmission fluid?) any ideas???

Re: i need help!!!

where exactly is it leaking from? It sounds like you may have a broken axel or bad CV joints.....but I dont know what the hell fluid, besides radiator, thats green. I know some packing greases are green...but it shouldnt be liquid. IDK, try and find out where its leakin from. Also, jack your car up and see if the wheel feels like it is connected to your car solidly, if it moves around a lot then its prolly 1 of the 2 things I said. Get it checked out for sure though.

Re: i need help!!!

sounds like a trans if it is coming from the driver side front wheel, cuz that is exactly where it sits!!!

maybe it is just a motor mount and shook some coolant lines loose though, iono...
