Hi all

Parked up earlier for about half an hour and on return to the car there was a puddle of liquid dripping away from the underneath. Looked like it was coming from roughly middle of the car as you look from the front, just behind the front of the front wheels for alignment.

I could see it dropping out quite regularly. Fortunately I was only half a mile from home so took her back and put her on the driveway. No leak. Nothing. Not even a tiny drip.

The only difference between the 2 locations is that where I was I left the wheels turned when parking, at home they are straight.

The liquid was a dark brown in colour, but too watery for oil. Hour and a half later after being home still no drip.

Drove fine coming back.

Any ideas what it could be? I was thinking power steering fluid based on the wheel angle whilst parked but that was purely circumstantial.

Thanks in advance.

Hmmm

I'm still thinking power steering.

Will see if I can get it to re-occur...

Thanks for confirming.
