    Listen, the panic attack you just saved me from was amazing. Thank you for this! Im a couple 100 miles over an oil change and noticed a leak but it was just water. I just about died 😂

    Omg. Thank you for this! I saw a leak in my car this evening, and I went to check what it was online. This is truly helpful. Gotta check tomorrow morning if it’s something serious.

    When I pulled out of my parking spot that dreaded wet spot was there!
    So I had to be someplace when I went into the parking lot I pulled into a space. I noticed the leak continued.
    So I took a plastic bag, slightly pulled back out of the spot and placed it right where the leaking happened to catch the liquid.
    Mine was also water thankfully!

    Apparently my car is leaking oil from the front bottom (can see wet under) but no drips overnight parked..? Unless very slowly? A mechanic said there's a lot of leaks but there's never nothing.. I have a Honda Accord 2002 LX..

    For the water that condenses from just after blowing cold ac, is it just routed through a hose? That's where muy leak is coming from and it's clear without smell so I'm pretty sure it's water

    I just noticed a small leak that appeared to be intermittently "spurting" slightly, like an old man going pee 😵 I had been running the air conditioner so I'm really hoping it's just condensation because I recently spent over $2,000 replacing every seal in the cam and crankshaft so there's NO WAY anything should be leaking at all right now!

    I have a fluid leak but it looks like vomit coming from the car. It only seems to be when I am parked at an incline. It doesn't happen other wise when I am parked straight. I can't figure out what it is. It doesn't smell but seems like chemically when I pour water over the light brown vomit color.

    this morning while loading my 2018 kia optima s before work, as i pulled out; I noticed a puddle under it in my garage.
    After some investigating, it was he AC condensation tube.
    I about had a heart attack until i saw the liquid was so clear it looked like i could drink it
    xD
    i baby the car. it just hit 16k miles. :)

    I have a little dripping water leak under the front left of my car, it appears to be coming out of a tube that looks like it is cut like an overflow but not meant to be connected to anything. I’m worrying if it’s serious or not, it is clear liquid and has no smell so I think it’s water. Do I need to go to the mechanic?

      Same here. Saw something leaking from my jeep just a bit ago after getting home and was worried. I ended up putting a container where I saw a leak. Saw that it was clear with no smell. Was so happy to find out that it's nothing wrong. Just put money into it to pass inspection, don't want to put more in it. What are sigh of relief!
