Unhappy oil & transmission leak

This is bazzar only because of the millage 037313 and the fact that no leaks accured till I replaced engine oil with REDLINE 10W40 and had the transmission filter and fluid changed also REDLINE D4ATF.
I checked the fluid levels warm for the transmission and they are in line or spec to not being over filled engine oil the same to spec. Car runs like a bad out of Well you now. But the frustrating part every morning is stearing at the small leak on the ground floor.
I did the oil change and though perhaps the filter did not seat well,I though I would wait till 500 miles to change it again and see what happens.
Previously I was usung Mobile 10W30 no leaks with factory oil filter. the transmission had no leaks what so ever and must of had the stock fluid .

Is there some thing I am over looking that I can check. I made an appointment to bring the 300-E back to my mechanic to check the transmission pan bolts.
Its just a small leak but enought to agravate me. What can I do?
