    It is a leak
    I don t really know when the trans fluid was changed
    i bought it last october08 and it has 236 ooo km
    do you know if it s expansive to changed a trans gasket in a garage ?
    i believe this is very difficult to change alone...

Usually not to expensive and yes it is difficult if you just bought the car and never worked on it , i always go to a mechanics the first time. just check the fluid often dont run it low, until you get it fixed. its just a matter of removing the bolts that hold the plate on and then changing/flushing the trans fluid, filter. if you never done it i wouldnt attempt it alone .

Oil leak seem to come from starter. What can it be - main bearing oil seal?

Oil leaking around a starter is usually one of three possible things.
If it is motor oil, then suspect the rear main seal.
It it is auto trans fluid, it could be from the transmission front seal or the torque converter
If you have a manual transmission, it could be clutch fluid leaking from the slave cylinder, or a leaky front seal from the transmission.

Oil leak between oil pan and transmission.

Try running some of that high-mileage engine oil next time you do an oil change (it helps to swell engine seals slightly). If the problem clears up or is reduced, then it's likely that the rear main oil seal is starting to leak a little. The rubber seals will harden up and shrink a little with age.
I would also powerwash the entire area clean, so that way any leak will be easier to monitor and pinpoint.

Bad oil leak in 2001 ot cruiser

A couple of leaks can be fairly large. An Oil Pan leak where you will see oil seeping down the sides of the pan and dripping directly below. The other is a Rear Main Bearing Seal leak and the oil will be coming from where the engine meets the transmission.

2006 Saturn Vue AWD loses oil fast

First I'd find a different shop. $100 to look at it? I don't think so. Sounds like this may be a transmission issue.
