Help me figure out this leak!

I started dripping what I thought was motor oil last week. If my truck sat for over 15 hours (give or take) I would find a drop of oil on the garage floor. When looking at the engine from above there is no sign of the leak. I keep my engine bay clean and an oil leak would be very obvious. From below, the motor mount on the driver's side is wet, and steering wheel knuckle has a tear of oil. There is no sign of where the oil is leaking from, and my oil level is fine. Here are some pics.




One more thing, today when I checked, the substance on the motor mount was clearly green. I thought maybe it was antifreeze (still no sign of any kind of leak), however, my antifreeze is pink and my wiper fluid is green. I did spray my windshield today so it may have just dripped down.

 

Sounds like you answered your own question but keep us posted.

 

i'm not sure what i'm really looking at despite being under my truck a lot besides the steering knuckle. Did you "rub" it between your fingers? What did it feel like? what did it smell like? You don't own a jeep, you shouldn't be looking under it every time before getting in it.

How bout power washing what already looks super clean and not using your bug x wiper fluid for a while....then go use the hell out of your wiper fluid and see if you get whats described above.

 

It's leaking oil. What I find on the garage floor is oil.

 

Green

 

Oil can be fairly green in color right after it comes out of the ground, actually.





Carry on.

 

But out of a Tacoma

 

check brake fluid/booster if its leaking. just an idea. idk, its the only other source of oil type substance on that side.

 

check your wiper fluid connections at the hood, may have a cracked fitting????
