I know/understand little about the workings of my car's heater (about as much as Bridget Jones asking "What happens at the office ?"). But could that be the source of a small puddle that has recently started appearing under the car ?
It's only been there the last few times I've been out, and then parked-up overnight. It has coincided with the cold weather, when I've been turning the heater knob on to full (and similarly, I don't know what that actually does -- is it connected to some kind of servo motor to open/close vents, or is it a simple mechanical linkage ?). The puddle-ette is about a couple of tablespoons, of a clear and unfamiliar smelling liquid. It evaporates once wiped away, but it doesn't look/feel/smell like radiator coolant, not oil, not petrol, not washer fluid, not brake fluid.... very slightly like cabbage water or cat's wee (and no I don't have a cat). Despite peering closely into the bowels of the car in the area ahead of the gearbox, I can't see any signs of a drip. So before I pull anything apart, any ideas ?
