oil leak
My mercedes C240 is leaking under my car. I seems to be somewhere between the front wheels of the car. What could it possibly be? Please give me all the potential issues.

it could be engine oil, trans fluid, power steering fluid, coolant!

sorry denise, couldnt resist. you have to be a little more detailed.

ive had customers think they had oil leaks only because they noticed a spot on a floor that was there before they parked.

It could also be water from the aircon.
