I am not sure about this, but over the last few weeks I have noticed these stains in my driveway and I am certain they are coming from my car. These dried up stains seem to be coming from the two front corners of the car. I opened the hood to look around, but it's so tight in there it's hard to see much of anything. The only work done on the car was an oil change about 8 weeks ago. Tires were rotated too. I only have about 30,000 km on the car. Any ideas what may be leaking like that?

 

what color/smell is the liquid?

 

What does it taste like? Salty, bitter, sweet? Does it taste like motor oil?

Just kidding. Well, kind of. I used to have a roommate who tasted leaky fluids to find out what they were. He was dead on accurate. "Yep, that's definitely power steering fluid." Not that I would recommend this method in general. Although he is still alive - still has all his hair and everything

 

^^^ Step 1...

if it is evenly distributed on both front corners of the car.. it could just simply be where all the water/rain drains???

 

I'm pretty sure it's oil as it is not red or green. The spots don't dry up, so it's not water and they dont seem to accumulate so theres no puddle. I have a feeling the oil plug is loose. I phoned my dealer and they say that they are open till midnight. Bring it in they will throw it up on the hoist and see whats going on. Thats service!!!
