I have a 1995 Ford Aeorstar 6 cylinder engine with 199,000 miles the transmission is leaking and I cannot see where it is leaking. There is no fluid on the ground but there is fluid on the front bumper. Can you tell me what I might check to find the leak. Secondly, The engine oil level is rising after I change the oil. I am not losing antifreeze and there is no foam in the oil when I check it. When I change the oil it does not seem to be much thinner than normal. What could be causing this problem? Please help!

Tranny leak sounds like the cooling system as the tranny fluid goes through the radiator.

Need more info on the oil level rise.
