I've seen more liquids dripping out of the engine compartment of my car in the last two days than I ever have before. Tonight, in addition to the oil leak from the differential cover, I got to watch my temp gauge go WAY up there within a mm or two of the red zone before the radiator farted a huge bubble of air/steam into the coolant reservoir and filled with coolant, causing the temp to slowly back down to normal.
This uneasy scene was completed by billows of fumes pouring off of the engine block and exhaust from oil and degreaser residue while running the car through all of its gears while up on the lift.
Then, after the test drive, there was still some power steering fluid, which seems to be left over from the messy repair completed 30 minutes earlier, still dripping slightly, and some oil, which oozed from the differential cover pretty easily at idle.
Don't get too frusterated- even pros can have trouble eliminating leaks quickly.
