Aircon Fluid ?

The AC system is filled with a gas and and a small amount of oil; there’s no fluid per se. I’m thinking screenwash or headlamp washer fluid is your source.

Just wanted an opinion from you knowledgeables. The 993 is dripping fluid from under the front passenger side bumper, in front of the wheel. I have put a breakfast bowl under and it has pretty much filled it up. Clear liquid with a slight colour tinge and smell. Shone a torch up there and looks wet. Pretty sure this is where the aircon cooling radiator is but wanted to confirm that this is aircon fluid that is leaking. Undid the hydraulic steering fluid container in the engine bay and this fluid smells very oily like gearbox oil so pretty sure it is not the steering rack that is leaking.

Have I got this right in assuming it is aircon fluid I have leaking?

Ian.
