Mystery Leak
Hi,
Anyone know what this strange leak could be ? As you can see its been staining the drive for some time. The dark one is a fresh drip. It doesn't appear to have an odor. Any help much appreciated.

The aircon water drain is around there.
It's normally clean water which comes out but your hole may be bunged with debris causing the discolour.

At the risk of sounding flippant, it's easy to spot because it'll have liquid dripping out.

No problem. I'm intrigued to see if it just dirty water so let us know how you get on.

Rusty water coming out the sill / bottom of the door? I had a 2 year old Civic which made a sloshing sound as it went round corners. Found the rubber one-way values in the bottom of the passenger door had stuck shut so all the rain water getting past the window rubbers was collecting inside the door. A good few litres came out when I cleared the blockage.
