Coolant Leak!!! Help!

My coolant is dripping down off my transmission. What could have caused this? Is this a serious problem?

Losing coolant is very serious!!

Can you see exactly where it's comming from?

I don't know about the 2.4 motor. It could be a line or hose

I know coolant loss is serious. I mean weather the cause of the leak is serious. (gasket/hose vs cracked engine) Its nowhere near the radiator hoses. I can't tell where exactly its coming from, but it seems to be directly above the transmission.

Are there lines above the transmission that you might not see?

It seems to be on the drivers side. Pretty sure there are no lines up there. But the leak seems to have gone away on its own, this is strange...
