What's This Leak?
 
Any ideas? Seems like coolant? No changes to the car besides a tune and some basic maintenance, and never leaked before.

It's odorless, and I think colorless: I picked it up with papertowel in the next post and just looks like dirty water? It's definitely dripping when the car sits.

It doesn't leak everytime; I'm not sure when, but maybe just when the car is pushed.

I'll check the coolant level again when the car is totally cold.

****i think it's a/c condensation

fyi: i thought it was coolant but it just seems like dirty water.. don't know where it's coming from, or what it is: it's odorless.

It doesn't leak every time, maybe just more like when I push the car or it gets hot or something?

Turn off AC and see if it drips. I will say its AC too

If i use my ac and go in for the night, i still have a water puddle under my car in the morning. The a/c in these cars like to put out a lot of water for some reason

Almost every car made leaks condensation from the AC being on.

deylag May 27, 2012 06:16 PM
