99 GTP: Mystery fluid on floor
Last weekend, I saw fluid under the right side of the car when in a parking lot and found a rather large puddle of almost clear, oily fluid on the garage floor when I got home. I figured it was power steering fluid. I just finished a rebuild a couple months ago but the old power steering pump wasn't changed, so I was guessing a leaky hose or seal.
I quit driving the vehicle. A much smaller puddle, barely more than a spot, appeared. But it was much nearer the front of the vehicle than the PS pump. And the PS pump fluid level is still full. Not much evidence of dripping fluid in the engine compartment. Is it possible that the new motor mount installed just a few months ago cracked and leaked its fluid already? Don't know how I could verify that without removing the mount. I'm at a loss for the source of the fluid. Any suggestions?

Re: 99 GTP: Mystery fluid on floor
Were you running the air conditioning at all? When it runs it will create condensation on the evaporator and the evaporator dumps the condensation out of a hole in the firewall.

Definitely not a/c condensation. It was an oil.
