Interesting oil leak
So I noticed a little puddle, about 1/2 inch diameter, at the driver's front of my car the other day. Didn't really think anything as it was pretty clear fluid with a bit of dirt in it. Then I was at a place where the parking lot was angled towards the driver's side and it was much more than a little puddle. The fluid was very light weight, but slightly oily. I'd never seen anything like it before.
Since I'm still under factory warranty I made an appointment and took it in earlier this week. Turned out to be one of the thrust arm bushings leaking. Dealer replaced it under warranty. No muss, no fuss.
