Yesterday, I drove my 2003 C4S yesterday for about 20 miles and left it in a car park. When I returned 2 hours later, there was a pool of liquid on the ground and dripping from the forward part of the front nearside wheel arch. Is this likely to be a leak from the nearside radiator or a pipe to it? I did drive home and, surprisingly, the temp guage remained steady at just above 80deg. Today I checked the coolant reservoir and the level was below the minimum mark but not by much So, am I right, is this likely to be a radiator leak? I assume this won't by covered by the Porsche extended warranty?

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.

It's a common question. Probably just the drain from the aircon, especially in humid weather like this weekend. Keep an eye on the water level for a few days.
The left wheel arch is also where the windscreen washer bottle pipe runs. The pipe can pop off the connector. Just a thought.....
Just noticed a leak from my car dripping in the middle of the car width wise and where i would describe the front bulkhead to be. The water is clear so hoping its air con condensation, but need the car to cool down before opening the coolant cap. Only other worrying thing is that the front boot carpet was damp the other day and couldn;t really explain why that would be Andrew
