I have a 98 Mercedes sl 500 leaking fluid on passenger side of car. Can this be brake fluid?

Can it be brake fluid? Yes. It can also be any number of other fluids that are routed along the passenger side of the vehicle.

What colour is the fluid? Is it oily like a lubricant?

Yes, it can be. Anything else? Oh, there are no "Mercedes sl 500" on the market. There are Mercedes SL vehicles on the market. Technically speaking, the car is a 1998 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 model. If you wish to contract a year of the calendar my reference books indicate an apostrophe is required. Otherwise there is a 98 number separate from '98. And you were so close to having THE most perfect English grammar posting on this site today. So close. Just that extra push. Have you read the car manual? Is it white like this one? Nice looking car. I hope it is not ignored. By asking here as to the possible problems as to this fluid gives me a bad feeling. When I have a car issue, I go to my mechanic. When he is not there, such as weekends or he is away on holiday and I cannot wait, I have to wait or seek an alternate mechanic. Today is Monday. Please take this super nice 1998 Mercedes-Benz SL 500 to a trained and certified and experienced technician. Please.



Color is clear. Light odor. Feels oily but not heavy

prolly water from the ac condensation line, but check it out and see

Sniff it and swap it and compare it
