Does it rattle at idle? If so, put it in neutral, put the parking brake on and slide under just enough to see if you can tell where it's coming from (the rattle that is). I'm not an expert on tranny's,but it sounds like you have a fluid leak that is either dripping onto the tranny, or it's the tranny itself. Best way to tell is wait til it's cool, slide your finger on the stuff and smell it. Most likely it's motor oil that has leaked out of the valve cover gaskets and trailed down to your tranny...but I'd check everywhere with a flashlight to see exactly where the leak is originating from.
