My car is leaking a lot of oi.l It looks like it's leaking between my transmission and my oil pan. Every time I check my oil it says it's fine.

this could be coolant running accross oil and making it look like oil or it's oil from the transmission or powersteering and leaking on the engine. Power wash the enginethen watch it carefully or take it to a pro and have him take a look. He can give you a better idea.....
