So recently my car has been leaking a clear liquid under the vehicle. The whole bottom of my car is damp. I don't think its condensation because I have not had my a/c on in awhile. Its not coolant because the reservoir is full. The liquid doesn't have a smell to it and feels like water. Is is possible for it to just be condensation even without my A/C running? Could it be transmission fluid (but isnt that red)? I feel dumbfounded about what it could be other then water. The liquid lasted all night on the garage floor without evaporating.

Will probably take it in to get it checked this week. Just want to know a little more about what it could be.

Thanks

Brake fluid?

But you said it feels like water?  It's not oily at all?

Well it has been raining basically all week in our area soooooo......

I realize that haha but it has happened when it hasnt rained.....

I'm gonna wait and see if it continues to do it again this week and will continue this post with further investigation.

lol, I'm just being a smart a$$

Clogged drains?  A problem usually when you have a sun/moonroof, and for everyone that has AC.

Battery acid -known to happen sometimes

More "unusual" sources are motor mounts and control arm bushings.  Might be a leak in the CAC/piping?

Is it in the rear of the car?

I'm betting rain water.  Mine likes to hold it and then randomly dumps it.  Drains all appear clear.  I think it just like to wait for my foot to be nearby so it can try to get me. LOL

It's in the front.

Still leaking some liquid but not as much as yesterday. It drips about 10 inches inside from the driver side wheel.

Hows the coolant level ? Z

That's right under the brake fluid reservoir.  Have you done any brake work recently?  How's the level?

Brake fluid is perfect. Coolant level is perfect.....I'm stumped. Hasn't rained since I started this post and still leaving puddles under the car.

Post some pics of exactly where you are seeing the puddles.  That would give us an idea of where and how much.

Mine leaves puddles in that same location.  I have always assumed it's from the A/C.

Check to see if your cabin air filter is wet,moist and while your there just change it....also could be your condenser is leaking.  Z
