Had my 2007 Allroad 3.2 up on ramps at the front today and noticed a slow dripping leak back towards the middle of the car, just left of the front to back centreline and about a foot behind the back of the front wheels. The pics hopefully illustrate the position. It's not oil and to me it looked and smelled like water, so I'm hoping it's something as harmless as the washer reservior leaking. I was wondering if anyone can tell from the pics what might be above this position as looking from the top down its behind the main engine compartment, sort of below the brake fluid reservior. I guess the windscreen washer pipe work must be in this vicinity too. 332813328233283

Have you been using A/C at LOW setting..maximum cold..Maybe be just condense water. If i use ac on low then will get water marks under car...just condense water..tasted and smelled it :D same was on my Vauxhall Astra.

Thanks for the reassurance guys. The car was only run for a minute to get it up onto ramps. Could it still be the a/c?

if only a minute then not sure. possible but not sure. but as normally we use water only on wipers then it cant be anything bad. Nothing to do with engine it self. If it looked like water. coolant tastes sweet..i tried :D Have a closer look and let us know what you found.
