About a week ago I noticed my car was leaking fluid which turned out to be coolant. I went to the mechanic and got it checked out said that it was an overflow and not a leak, due to my radiator cap. Got a new radiator cap, car was running fine until this morning when I noticed another leak, this time smaller than the first and I touched the fluid and my finger was almost black or dirty. My car has not ran hot or anything like that. I dont what it could be. Can someone help?

Hi hondagurl96,

This seems to be oil that is leaking and it can come from many sources. You would need to check where the leaking is coming from first by looking at the engine from top and bottom.

Most leaks are from oil seals and gaskets.
