I don't like how all the colors are similar. Makes it harder to figure out.

Hi Scotty, My Camry is leaving what appears to be a whitish patch of stain on my driveway. It is not oil based and seems to be coming from under the hood. What fluid could possibly be leaking?

Hi Scotty, thanks for your vids. My little VW is leaking a brown/blackish liquid. From texture, it doesn't seem to be oil. What could it be? Location-wise, it is right in front, between the two wheels, closer to the right one, perspective being, if I am in the driver's seat. Thanks in advance.

Is it thick and sludge like?

It's oil...Look under your car if there's oil on the oil pan then it's oil, try tightening the oil pan but not too tight, if that doesn't fix it you might have a rear main seal leak

mine looks like chocolate milk but the oil is fine... thoughts anyone?

@jacobybtw4819 6 жыл бұрын

It's fine, if it's brown it's good! If it's black get it changed asap though! My oil is always brown no matter how many oil changes I get nothing to worry about!
