Default Re: Any tips for winter storage?

So far so good on storing my XF. I've started it every 3 weeks and ran it for at least 15 minutes each time. Unlikely I'll get a dry and salt-free day to actually drive it a bit anytime soon.

I did notice something though, a couple drops of oil on the floor. It's never leaked before. Believe me I'd notice even a single drop in my driveway if it had ever leaked before.

Have not done further diagonsing yet though. Slipped a sheet of cardboard under it to identify the location of the leak. To be clear the transfluid is red on these cars? This leak seemed to be toward the rear of the engine and was a very clean engine oil color.

Hoping it's just minor weaping due to the seals being cold and contracted. It's never leaked in the summer.
