Im sorry to hear that man. The red fluid sounds like possibly transmission fluid. Im not sure if trans fluid cycles through the radiator or if there is a trans cooler, but you should take an extra look. You mean the passenger side fender? Glad no one got hurt, and hopefully you will get your car back up to how it was.

The red fluid is the acd fluid resovior. Damn that sucks. From your explenation it sounds like the x5 is at fault because he was in the intersection when you had the green light which means he should be at fault. Did you get a ticket or what happened to make the police say it was your fault and not his, cause I would fight saying it was his fault.

nah, no police i pulled him over and we went somewhere where no police would see us , i was at fault because of the rule of the green light , the rule is if your standing under a red light and it hits green you make pass if the intersection is free ...... and the intersection wasn't free the guy who went through the yellow light would just probably have got a warning or something but i broke 2 rules there , first for launching like crazy 2nd the green light rule


so whats the acd fluid for?

Glad you're ok.

Were you gonna race the G500? Is that why you "floored" it after he did? Lesson learned hopefully.
