Fluid leaks only when AC has been running. It means to be the consistancy of oil but with a red tint, no smell detected. It only leaks a small amount, so far.

Red usually indicates trans fluid, but some coolant can be this color too. Check the color of the coolant in the engine and let me know what it is. Also, where is the leak coming from?
