Hi,Just noticed a oil leak from front Driver and passenger side, it seems its a brake fluid, i have the oil on both wheels any idea what can it be. Thanks in advance.

Just looked under and seems its splashing all over the both of the car, the color is Green, I have a power steering oil and that's green color. If its power steering fluid where can be leaking the only way to check it i guess i have to remove the plastic cover under the car.

Inspect the steering rack. Best wash the area off it is P/S fluid as it can damage paints/plastics and most rubbers.

Thanks for the reply, i will check it tomorrow, if it is the power steering rack is it a easy job to replace? I'm too far away from a Dealer to have it checked or repaired.
