[QUOTE="Johnny O, post: 1038407, member: 61743"] Possibly the rear seal from sitting, although I think it should take longer than a week. Happened to my son's Mustang a few years ago. My folks go to Florida for the winter so when he was in college we'd store the Mustang in their garage. I took it out once on a nice day and started seeing all kinds of smoke out the back. Took it to the shop, he said they'd seen that before on cars that were stored. His theory was that the weight of the driveshaft turns the rear tranny seal into a pear shape and it leaks a bit until you start driving it and then it gets back to round again. [/QUOTE]
