Transmission leak

Have a puddle of tranny fluid under the car, I attached a small video of me putting my phone under there. Any ideas what this can be from? Thanks, sorry for poor quality on video.

@Loki hey Loki do you have an idea what this could be? I know the video is brief but maybe you could spot something so I know what I’m dealing with when I take it in for diag next week

Looks like the engine oil pan gasket to me, actually. Are you sure it's the trans fluid, not engine oil?

@UnknownJinX thanks for replying. It’s transmission oil very red in color.

I see in some other threads that yours is a 4AT version, and it seems like this is actually the transmission pan.

In which case, I think you answered your own question. It looks to be the sensor over there that's leaking.

That fluid also looks a bit brown to me. I'd change it if I were you.
