1998 C5 Leaking Something Red

[CHARLES]

I,ve got a strange leak in my 1998 c5. I find a small drop of something red under car only after it sits idle for two or three days . I believe its power steering fliud but i can't tell where its coming from, maybe the unit down low in front of the motor.Why does it only leak after sitting idle for a few days on crank up.Any help will be appreciated.

Well, the two things that are red are transmission fluid and coolant.

Could easily be an overfilled power steering pump? I had this on my impala (completely different cars!) Just meant it was overfilled and was leaking out the excess fluid. Not sure but that could be what it is!

Good Luck,
