Roadside repairs

Identifying leaks

Puddles on the garage floor or drive, or obvious wetness under the bonnet or underneath the car, suggest a leak that needs investigating. It can sometimes be difficult to decide where the leak is coming from, especially if the engine bay is very dirty already. Leaking oil or fluid can also be blown rearwards by the passage of air under the car, giving a false impression of where the problem lies.

Warning: Most automotive oils and fluids are poisonous. Wash them off skin, and change out of contaminated clothing, without delay.

The smell of a fluid leaking from the car may provide a clue to what’s leaking. Some fluids are distinctively coloured. It may help to clean the car carefully and to park it over some clean paper overnight as an aid to locating the source of the leak. Remember that some leaks may only occur while the engine is running.

Sump oil

• Engine oil may leak from the drain plug.

Oil from filter

• The base of the oil filter.

Gearbox oil

• Gearbox oil can leak from the seals at the inboard ends of the driveshafts.

Antifreeze

• Leaking antifreeze often leaves a crystalline deposit like this.

Brake fluid

• A leak occurring at a wheel is almost certainly brake fluid.

Power steering fluid

• Power steering fluid may leak from the pipe connectors on the steering rack.
