Is it normal that after cleaning some liquid will flow out and then it will stop ?

Coverage and how to read this overview

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.

5 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi I cleaned front radiators yesterday (I cleaned the waterprusher machine, maybe it was not a good idea). This morning I went to the garage and saw leak on the floor. Now I do not know if it is water or liquid from the heat sink. does the coolant have a transparent color? Is it normal that after cleaning some liquid will flow out and then it will stop ? Link to photos on the site https://imgur.com/a/nkDCfPz Thanks

POST 3Original post

Unlikely to be coolant looking at those pics, the rads are in good shape. Its probably just trapped water which. As MC says, taste it. Alternatively drive it for a while and re-check.

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Thanks for the answer. I tried this fluid it is water. Water dripped overnight from heat sinks. I have panicked unnecessarily... 8)

POST 5Original post

nothing wrong with the odd panic. just don't make a habit of it.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
