Fluid leak?

Hi guys,

Just noticed a fluid drip from my car when I was parked. It came from 3 black hard lines located near the front passenger tire, towards the passenger door. I had the A/C on when the drip was noticed, turned it off and didn't notice it again after.

Here's a picture of the area, but it's the driver's side and the lines aren't visible. They would be at the very top, just out of the picture in this pic:



Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Does the fluid have any color or did it look like water? If it looks like water, then it's just condensation from your AC and is perfectly normal when the AC is on or after you've been running the AC.

^ what he said. What color is the fluid. Is it trans fluid, oil, power steering, etc. (color should help clear this up)

Sounds like he is talking about the drain for the AC, which is by the three metal hardlines

Yes, it's by the 3 hardlines with the fluid leaking from the bracket.

The fluid had a blue-green tint to it. I didn't smell it at the time and haven't drove the car since. It also had some opaqueness to it, which is why I wasn't sure if it was just condensation or not.
