Driver side tranny pan bolts seeping slightly.

Time to put your big girl pants on and break out the torque wrench, Lol, threshold of 51 wowww. Wish you were here 75. I'm sure they just need some snugging with the wrench.

I'd be tempted to take it to the dealer and demand a new gasket - this way you get some new fluid added.
