A Leak under the car but oil and coolant levels are fine?

[jamesters]

I seem to have a new leak coming from my car...with all the rain we've had in the first few days i'd assumed it was just water but it was dry as a bone last night and there seems to be a patch on the ground at back and front of the car i had a look under the car and it seems to be like an oil patch under the engine but both oil and coolant levels are fine and had it serviced recently :/ any ideas

Condensation dripping from the air conditioning components?

Recently had a leak from a PAS pipe fitting. Looked a bit like oil on the drive.

Why not? You don't have to drink it, just a smell and a taste.
