    i have a brand new 430 scud and this weekend i decided to take out on a longer drive then usual, (45min run)when i parked it in my driviway to wash it i noticed a red fluid coming out of a over flow tube tucked inside behind the right wheel. Can somone explain why this is there and why it is doing it only with 400km on it.

    I own a 360 F1. If your car is a F1 that could be that your system is leaking ATF fluid.
    Use the search tool and type "leak" and you will find a lot of threads from members here including me!

    Could also be F-1 fluid or transaxle boot leak. Both happened to me! Hopefully since your car is relatively new it isn't anything that needs repair.

    Opening up an old thread. This just happened to me. Fluid was leaking out of tube behind wheel. What does this mean? Where is that tube attached to? Only a bit came out then went for a 70 mile drive then nothing.
