Mystery Leak
Hi folks, went outside this morning and after backing up my car, noticed that there was this huge remnant of a leak underneath middle of car. Thought it was oil at first, but touched it and it was a clear, watery consistency. Put the car on ramps and saw something leaking from the front jack point hole, not sure what it could be. Coolant was below min (although not by much) so my thoughts are some hose broke, but I have not had a warning or high temps or anything of the nature. Any ideas?
Ignore the actual oil specks, those are from my 04 accord |

I would suspect coolant. Have you checked the coolant lines going to the coolant tank. That is most common place for these cars to have failure
There is a recall on this so can get it fixed for “free” they will probably try to sell you a water pump or thermostat ect during the repair |

Maintenance. Maybe if it happened on a brand new super low miles car they will pay for it. |
