Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

Ok so my car has been sitting out for the past few days and when I go to put it in tonight I have a yellow circle under the rear lsd, about 10" in diameter in the snow. What's up with that?

Gas leak?

Feel the snow, does it feel oily at all? Maybe the rear diff is leaking.

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

It feels frozen =/, it is one with the ice now.

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

well, it shouldn't be oil then. I would say it is dog piss :D

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

Maybe it just feels frozen since it dripped on to pure ice?

When in doubt, smell it.

Wouldn't piss have melted that area too? You know like left an indentation or something. That must of been something that wasn't warm.

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

yeah, it looks kinda dark. A lot like gear oil. I would check it out pretty soon.

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

Yea that is a pretty big circle, I would look into that before you loose much more.

I dont drive her often, been sitting there for a week or two, any idea why it might leak?

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

The cold is pobably shrinking the seal around 1 or both of your axles, which would make it leak, or the metal contracted a little around the plug and some leaked out... but then more would have leaked out.

The cold weather shrinks all rubber gaskets/seals so everything leaks easier.

Just look at your pinion seal and axle seals, if they're coated in slime they're leaking. Should be pretty obvious if it is leaking.

Rgr that.

WTF, it's coming from my trunk, must be wiper fluid, even tho the stuff have in there in green, is it possible it froze and cracked the ressy?

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

That stuff shouldn't freeze unless you put some water in the reservoir.

CRAIG

Your positive its not gas? Did you smell it?

Re: Yellow snow? rear leaking?
 

It's in my trunk and I can see where its dripping out the drain hole.
