Name that fluid
Found this pool in the garage this morning. No noticeable smell and not viscous. But slight reddish color. Originating from just ahead of the left rear wheel.

I'd guess brake fluid :dunno:

If it's brake fluid, you would know if you drove it. That's more than a little. The pedal would feel soft and braking performance should be affected.

Clean up the spill as quickly and thoroughly as you can and keep the dog away until you do. |
Wagon, right? Windshield washer fluid from. The rear window reservoir?

Name that fluid
Actually, the brake fluid has a smell. This doesn't.
I just jacked it up and found where it's dripping from. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...7a5d4399fc.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...31aa3435c8.jpg |
Failed shock?
|
If it’s not oily, I’d suspect a sudden release of accumulated water.
|
Are any of the bushings up there oil-filled? Zee Germans love them some oil-filled bushings. And they crack, then leak.
Usually that oil smells pretty nasty, though. Shock oil also tends to smell pretty terrible. |
No smell and not oily. Seem slightly thicker than just water, but that could be dirt.
|
Shock would be my guess . . . unless there is an empty 7-11 slurpee cup in the back seat :)
|
Nick for the win.
Took it in. Unable to find a source. Nothing is leaking, not shocks, brakes, transmission, nothing... Looks like it may have been some sort of dumping of water/condensation. Very odd. |
AC usually dumps up front. Reddish from good ole Northeast winter...
|
Has your humility level risen over the last few days? Ours has... Ive always noticed A/C moisture drops in that pattern on various cars,,,
|
The car had. It been run in about a week. How might that play in?
