Default Dreaded E-Series Syndrome...

Guys, I never thought I'd see this, but the ute has E-Series Syndrome.

It's leaking out the front end somewhere, left a nice small puddle in the driveway. I'm not sure what the hell it is. Could be oil, uh... yeah, I don't know, I'm gonna crawl under it and have a look, then try and explain where it's coming from.

Step 1... Identify the substance!!! :
Step 2....Identify at least a "general" area!!!


Seriously though... have you just changed oil? Often a bit of oil will sit in the chassis and drip out later loking like a leak.

Time to go crawling under and have a look I'm afraid.

Yeah, the oil filter was a smidge loose. Just tightened it back up again.

Also found water too, more than likely from the air-con.
