Anyway, over the weekend, it got real use, a mix of motorways, towns, country road etc.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Hi All,
With work and family and the other cars I have, I don't get to drive the 996 Turbo S much.
Please don't shout but I may have done 500 miles this year.
Anyway, over the weekend, it got real use, a mix of motorways, towns, country road etc.
It go the obligatory WOT in one or two safe situations, just to make sure things are working correctly :lol:
So when I got back on the Saturday, I noticed the front passenger wheel arch-liner had fluorescent green liquid on it......am I right in thinking this is aircon fluid ? The fluid was at the front side of the wheel, I guess behind the rads....nothing else was visible.
the A/C works fine although, now thinking about it, it may have been a little whinny.

Sounds to me like its most likely air con fluid.
Had a leak on mine when i first bought the car, was a fluorescent green puddle behind the drivers seat at the joint. Needed new seals
If in the left wheel arch it might be left condenser has burst/split. Have you had the air con running ?? mine only started coming out after turning it on after never being used for a while.
Have a look in through the front bumper with a torch and see if there seems to be any signs of leakage/damage or wet patch on the condenser.
Coolant may be green or pink but you will struggle to noice the colour when it drips out .
Engine oil brown to black.
Bright green .. a/c dye .
dark green .. pentosin .. power steering or on a turbo then clutch as well.
Clear water .. a/c draining off.
Tip leak .. red or light grey depending on the box fitted.
I would advise Against tasting any of these to figure out what it is .
Given the propensity for condenser leaks I would spend a few quid on a UV torch and goggles and have a look around with that if you aren't sure. The A/C dye will light up brightly if there is any present.

Don't forget washer fluid - mine was dripping blue liquid from in front of the front n/s wheel. I assumed it was coolant and bought 2 new rads. When I had the front PU off it was obvious the headlamp washer was leaking. Washer fluid comes in all sorts of colours! (I replaced the rads anyway...)
