Black Rain needs help, leak of some kind
Long story shot i went to wax my car and opened the shed to find a pool of watery looking fluid that had run from the front of the car all the way to she shed door, i will attach a few pics. Theyre hard to see but the fluid was like water with a slight green tint. I dont think its coolant because its not bright green plus my coolant is red. The coolant resevre tank was full and when i pulled the cap to the radiator and felt it it was full. I called the mechanic he said if i ran the air which i did it could had leaked or failed for some reason and that it should be fine to drive the 7 miles to his shop when i get the plates on. What do you guys think it is. Is it safe to drive that far? and should i run it and smell for anything from the engine? warm rubber smell or anything etc.? Need help with this one because im totally confused and id ont want to hurt my car.
The second pic is of a few small drips that are under the front passenger side and the third pic is of a puddle thats below the front drivers side. I couldnt get a pic of it really but seems like the drips that ran thru to the back of the garage were a bit father back than these.
I checked and I couldnt come up with anything the hoses seemed all fine and like i said the radiator and reserve tank were both at correct levels. I put my finger in to check the radiator which made a little fluid spill so when i did see something wet it was because of that.
And when i did call my mechanic he said its possible liek i stated before in the thread, that the ac failed or leaked from non usage so long and may have been going bad already. I told him it seemed like a lot of fluid to be from that and he said it was possible?
I had run the ac and the hot air both one night when i was warming it up so i could let it cool to make sure i had the correct level of oil in. (which i did)
Ok I will do that, I should be getting plates and insurance not tomorrow but the next monday and I want to make sure since i'll be taking it right to the mechanics to get the rims put on.
