Is there a way to recognize engine and gearbox oil from each other?

Hi, I don't see any oil drops on the concrete bellow the car.

Up to the red mark(car was not straight or something happened), I removed some extra oil couple of weeks later.

I will do that, thank you

One quesion more please. Is there any way how to see/check the level of the oil in the gearbox, or if there is a little oil in gearbox? Or better change it straightaway, and see how much was there?

Thanks for replies, additional info. 1. Top of the motor is very clean, no oil leak visible 2. It's possible that I put a little too much oil when changing oil last time, just a bit above the upper bend on the oil measurement rod. 3. Changing gears smooth and exact 4. Clutch works smooth and easy. 5. There is a small difference in the sound when idling with and without clutch pressed.

Hi all, sorry for newbie question. Today I was just checking the car from bellow and I noticed a significant leak of oil below the motor/gearbox. (the oil is NOT dripping to the ground yet). The car is from 2013 petrol. Not sure is its because I put too much oil, if its coming from motor or if I am loosing oil from gearbox and how significant the problem is. Any tip greatly appreciated. Thank you

Hi all, I have strange problem with brakes. The car just passed MOT with no issues. Just fitted new front brake pads and 4 new balanced tires. Problem persist. 1. There is strong shaking of car when braking (even light braking) in high speeds (80km+). No strange sound just car shaking. 2. When I do quick brake even on low speed, there is horrible clicking noise from front of the car and car is nearly no braking. This is happening very sporadically (3times in 10000 km) Any ideas what it can be? Thank you all
