Water leak - but not from engine bay

Post by EURO »

Hi guys,

This is going to be a hard one to explain.. Just noticed today that water was pooling underneath my car... jumped underneath and its leaking from a pipe that is on the left hand side of my car, quite close to the wheel / suspension area....

Im 99% sure its water, but what would be leaking around this area? Its not the exhaust.. anyone have any ideas - sorry for the vagueness but I couldnt work out what the pipe/area was on the car...

im tipping i should drop it off and mech to find out if its a danger or not.
