I have noticed that i'm getting a patch of water underneith the van, its towards the rear near the exhaust system. I have attached some photos. Does anyone know what this is and is it a problem?









The fluid isn't oil or petrol, looks and feels like water.

Cheers,

Under further inspection, looks like the gasket has gone sealing the cap plate on. Its the 2nd heat exchanger for the rear of the vehicle. It is water leaking, but the main engine coolant water. I've only had the van a week or so and brought it from a garage, so hopefully it will be covered under their 3 month warranty! Also noticed that the exhaust next to it is blowing slightly on the joint, lucky (if you can call it that) that section of exhaust needs to be removed for the heat exchanger gasket to be change, so hopefully address that problem at the same time.
