clear light oil leak
Purchased a 2013 Cooper S in May with 54K Mi. Runs great, no issues, everything working as it should.
I have found a small puddle of water thin, light odorless oil under the front of the car to the right and forward of the condensate puddle several times now. The fluid in almost clear with a slight bluish tint, water thin and no odor at all. I have found about four puddles 3" to 4" across now . I first thought it was PAG oil from the A/C but my A/C has been working perfect in our 100 deg heat in TX. I have looked under the car all around the underside of the engine and trans and can see no wet areas where anything is leaking at all. I want to address this before it becomes a problem.
Any ideas or help is appreciated before I take to dealer. .
