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?

Straight roads are for fast cars, twisty roads are for fast drivers. I have or am neither.

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

So the car is currently with a mechanic, and yet you post on an internet forum for diagnosis of the problem?

Ryyyyyyyyyte...

kinda wanna know what it is so I know what to expect on the bill.

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.

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

A decent mechanic would probably notice and notify you if there was a problem, just give them a call and let them know your concerns in case they don't see anything, but anything caught early is cheaper than a re-build.

And it could be anything from the overflow bottle like mentioned before to one of the under manifold pipes or hoses (getting exy) just get it checked while it's in there.....Price wise I'm sure Mao will look after you.

Wouldn't be having this problem with the jazz

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)
