Default 88 S4 rear oil leak

Noticed a very small amount of yellow/brown oil from between the rear tires/transaxle area yesterday. CV joints were good 6 months ago. I have done no work besides brakes (1 year ago), shocks and raised the ride height to stock (3 months ago). Torque tube, tranny, diff are all stock and have never been off the car since it was made.

I don't have a lift, and I haven't jacked the car up yet.

What are the most likely areas for an oil leak in this area?

Thanks!
Brian

Sounds as though you might need to start looking for signs of a leak around the diff half shaft seals.
