My 2010 Fiat 500C has been periodically leaking an oily, greyish fluid. It started out a month or two ago, went away, and now seems to be back with a vengeance.
I fired it up this evening for a short run and it spat out a large amount of fluid as I started it. It left a trail of drips down the driveway and the same on the street as I took off.
It seems to burp it out as I start the car but clear up after. The dipstick shows no sign of oil loss (it's a different colour, anyway). My regular mechanic had a look underneath while we had another car in for servicing last week and could not find any sign of a leak.
I'm concerned it could be transmission fluid. Has anyone else had a similar problem or know what it might be?
