Leak

I just picked up an 06 mr and have a leak from the reservoir on the driver front side of the hood. It says diff on it. Is this a common problem? Do I just need to switch out the reservoir?

Round, white, pink fluid? If so that's your ACD reservoir, might want to make sure it's just the reservoir and nothing else that's leaking.

I think. I know if your standing in front of the car its right at the front right. Its a small round reservoir and i believe the fluids pink. I can see it leaking at the bottom of it by the lines. Its still pretty full but needs fluid. What fluid goes in there?

I wouldn't mix, but that's just my opinion. Put it this way, if you're low on oil and you've been using Mobil 1 10W-30, would you pour in a different brand 10W-30?
