Pink trail of fluid on garage floor
Had my low miles 2013 boxster S out yesterday and today I notice a trail of fluid. Is anti freeze pink? I know that is the color in Audis. Had no warning lights etc.

Porsche coolant/anti-freeze is indeed pink. Depending on who you ask, you don't want to put any other color/type in. No idea on why there was a trail of pink fluid (sorry!), but I do know that there is a pressure relief valve in the engine bay (could some have burped out? hmm).

The only fluid that your car should leave a trail of is plain old water from say the A/C heat exchanger dribbling condensed water.
Where was the trail? From a front corner? Or possibly from the area where the coolant tank resides. Or more centered and under the car which then points at the water pump.
Regardless, you have to get the source of the fluid identified and addressed.
