Car did a wee whilst parked!
After a meeting tonight, I came back to the car to discover a puddle below the bumper at the front left. Car was parked on a gentle slope with the front pointing down the hill.
Puddle (not water nor rain) was only a couple of feet long, wasn't oil or diesel or anything, so assuming washer fluid (it was dark outside so couldn't tell). Car is now parked on the level and no drips at all. Any ideas what could be causing the leak? Trying to save a few quid at the moment so this is a bit of a bummer. Thanks Oh, car has headlight washers btw (see link) http://www.volvoforums.org.uk/showthread.php?t=160944 |

Sure it wasn't just condensation from the air-con? Little pools due to that are normal.

Nope, actually did a 6 mile journey with the window down. A/C was last used on saturday. Use the car at weekends mainly (am finishing uni as a postgrad student so i use a bus normally, for my sins). Uni status is the reason for trying to save £.
