    Greetings,

    I found a little puddle of a purple-ish fluid, feels a bit oily, under the front of the car this morning.

    Popped the front trunk and found a reservoir of fluid without a cap. I got to believe that there should be a cap on this. Went thru the owner's manual and I still can't figure out what reservoir this is.

    Any thoughts on what is going on here? I did not see a cap loose in the compartment and I don't Remember seeing this open when I bought the car.

    Thanks,

    Mark

    Snapping the cap in place properly is not always done. It possibly fell of since you last looked. Very possibly caught somewhere down there in the body work.

    That's what I thought. What fluid is in that reservoir?

    Thanks,

    Its the window washer bottle. That area is very closed up. Its most likely sliding around down there.

    Yep, dug around and there it was. No harm, no foul, I guess. Thanks Fellas!
