Isn't the coolant that color? I recall a post by porsche52 I believe detailing the colors of the fluids that run through the Pig. IIRC, that pinkish color was the coolant color.

Looks like coolant to me. Coolant pipes!! That is were they coolant leaks out at, down the bell housing, onto the tranny pan and under tray. Trans fluid is bright red, that is 100% coolant not ATF.

Coolant. And it does look 100%. The only way that 100% should hit the floor is if somebody spilled it.

Clean it up QUICK. Animals love it, think it is candy, and it is a DEADLY poison.
