leaking, but not in the back


Recommended Posts

I let me car sit for the past two days and I notice windshield wiper fluid on my garage floor. It appears to be coming from the drivers side where the front undertray ends. If you were looking at the car in side profile view the leak is before the front wheel. Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem? Does is have something to do with the front headlight washer? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

PS I'll try to post photos tomorrow.

That is where the tank and pump(s) are. Could be a hose or could be a cracked tank. You will need to remove the wheel and wheelwell liner to see what is going on.

I have the same problem but only when I activate the headlight washers.

I just noticed that one of my healight washing jets is not working (driver's side), and the other comes up but does not jet any fluid out.

I do endu up with a puddle of fluid in between the front driver's side wheen and the end of the front right quarter paner, near the driver's door.

Do you have an idea on where I might start looking for loose hoses, etc.?

Thanks Loren.

MY02 and newer headlight washers are different from the earlier ones. Here is a diagram...

Loren, really, what would this site be without you? :thumbup:

You wouldn't happen to have a more zoomed out picture, would you?

Thank you.
