Oil (or whatever it is) drip
 
Hi guys,
just realised my car has been dripping some liquid at the front that I have never seen before. The liquid is predominantly gray with a tint of dark green and it feels like paint. it is not a puddle, just a few drops here and there.
Any chance anyone knows what it could be?

Is it from the overflow bottle in the front left, on mine is on the left?

seems like the drip is in the middle actually. can't tell right now as the car is with Mao overnight for service.

Get him to do a pressure test on the cooling system in the morning, it's usually nothing serious but it could also be the beginning of a hose letting go so not worth the risk of blowing a motor if you're not too familiar around the car.

well, I would be having other problems with the Jazz (e.g. going up hill or getting the car to 100k to merge on freeway)

cheers, will give him a call about that tomorrow.
would that be an expensive fix if that was the case?

Where in Perth can you merge at 100kph ?

But good upgrade.
