Hello,
I have a 2001 Hyundai accent 1.5 which I purchased a month ago, it's done 66,000 miles.
I have noticed today that there are 3 patches of brown thick slight substance under the car. I have put cardboard under to monitor it but would be grateful if you can give me an idea of what it is likely to be.
Also, I am not going to be able to get it to a mechanic until Saturday and need to drive it to work, do you think it will be safe to do so?
Thanks

It is hard to say if it is safe. If it is heavy / thick, check the trans fluid. Make sure the engine oil is full and using the cardboard, try to locate the location of the problem.
