Hey everyone. 2002 Boxster S has slow dripped coolant since December. Just now getting around to figuring it out. It has gotten no worse or better over these 4 months, seemingly no change, and never smelled coolant while or after driving. Any ideas where its coming from? You can see its hitting that 02 sensor wire before ground, and has made a mess of everything else around it. It IS coolant and only coolant. All other fluids are exactly the same as they have been. Thanks!
6mt. And maybe when it was like -10 to 20 for several weeks i was seeping a tiny tiny amount. But nothing since then and dipstick and electronic measurement has not changed since the december oil change. Plus no stains on the white concrete.
You are saying what is circled in yellow is coolant?
What I circled in red looks like oil drips.
What I would do is get some carb cleaner and spray as much as you can in that area to clean it off. Then take it out for a drive when it's dry out and see if the drip returns and is indeed coolant. I'm going to bet that it's actually oil unless you also have coolant leaking in the trunk.

I can promise it is leaking coolant on the account that my reservoir is empty and this liquid is not staining the concrete. I checked it with my fingers and it is indeed coolant.
