XC90 11 plate D5 AWD - WATER LEAK

Turnipstar · Aug 25th, 2021, 13:05

Hi,

I have a 11 plate XC90 - That I absolutely love!

I came out of Asda earlier and saw that something was hanging down at the front of the car - pictured, it was very oily I poked it back up?

I don't know if its connected but I saw a small puddle under the car - it was water and not oil.

I have now got home and it is doing the same thing on the driveway. I have been using the air con so I am hoping that the puddle is something to do with AC but looking at where it is dripping from I'm worried its a radiator or something?

I have not driven over anything or bashed the front? Any ideas on either issue?

*apologies for the dirty car we have a big tree over our driveway and the birds keep pooping on it

The water as likely to be the air conditioning condensation draining off. If so, it's quite normal.

Follow that rubber hose and see where it is connected. There should not be any rubber hoses hanging down like that on the front of a D5 XC90.

I also have a D5...
