Fluid leak
Hi all, this is my first time on site so apologise if i'm in wrong forum.
I went to use my s320 today & noticed fluid leaking at the front of the car. Upon
inspection it's coming from around the right hand side(when looking at car from front) of the radiator near the bottom. The fluid is clear but seems a little oily when rubbed between fingers, and is odourless. Has anyone any ideas as to what it might be before I strip the front end?
Many thanks.

Which is the color?
Could be a radiator hose, if squeaks when squeezed change them, even if the leak dont came from there.
In that side could be the steering, motor oil, Air conditioning oil, even brake fluid are in the right side...
Depends on the color of that fluid.

Turned out to be leaking from the AC condenser.
