360 Hydralic Leak?

Probably from the F1 transmission or possibly the steering fluid. It could be coming from any number of locations. I suspect you'll need to remove the undertray in order to identify just where exactly it's coming from but you know that already don't you?

Good luck.

 

Isn't there a block in that area that gives problems and is traditionally replaced by a Hills unit - several threads - sorry cannot recall part name

 

In Texas you have choices. Don't give money to someone who will not communicate any more than to tell you what number to write on the check. Get someone else to look at it, diagnose it and estimate it. It is really that easy and is what you have every right to expect.

 

What's the color of the leaking liquid? Red? If it's red, you have to deal with a F1 hydraulic leak (or steering hydraulic system but it's obviously not located at the rear of the car).

 

Could still be either steering or transmission fluid. Anything dripping down can travel along the underside of the tray before it drops out on the floor so if you cannot identify the leak from above there really is nothing else for it but to remove the tray and then see where the fluid drops and then go searching. Could be something very simple and if you have a jack or two and a couple of axle stands you can at least do the investigation and diagnosis bit yourself with a bit of research on the forum.

Good luck.

 

Have you been topping up on F1 clutch fluid lately. I checked the dip stick and it looked a little bit low so I poured in about 2 dl and took the car out for a spin. Day after there was quite a big pool on the floor. Seems like I gave her a little bit to much to drink and she was sick during the night.

 

Amen to that!

 

if the color is redish it is F1 fluid which would be right behind the right rear tire if it is over filled (since the system will purge out the excess fluid). If its a amber color and in the middle it would be the engine, trans, or sump. If its redish and in the middle powersteering up by the pump otherwise there are two connectors by the passenger fuel tank. Make sure you take belly pan off to really figure out where the leak is coming from since there are several opening in the belly pan which could skew where its truly coming from.

 

You are too far from Houston, otherwise I could have taken a look ...
