washer fluid leaking from our 335d

[CR0X]

noticed it today. It is leaking, and I mean, properly dripping every 3 seconds, from underneath the middle of the car.

It is clear and completely tasteless ... so assuming washer fluid but anyone had this before I book it in with Coopers Banstead?

[juliann]

Is the washer fluid level going down ?

Has the aircon been running

OP seems to be getting away lightly with this one

I wouldn't normally expect washer fluid to be tasteless (unless you've been using water only).

As juliann says above ..... has the A/C been on?

[CR0X]

The issue with the washer fluid is that I have just done Dublin to London and then London to Dover and back so it is probably about time for it to be low, as it is warning.

The A/C has been on, obviously, but never seen anything coming out from the car, and it sits right outside the office where it would be noticed.

All cars fitted with A/C leave water trails behind , it's the condensation build up on the cold parts of the system , sometimes collected and directed into 1 outlet pipe under the car . Leave it running for a few mins with the engine and A/C running you'll probably see a small puddle form

Had to move one of our clients new shape RS6's t'other day. Had to do a double take of the 'air-con' trail... made me gulp for a second!

Get it remapped, then you'll be going so fast the water will just evaporate back in to the already humid air.
