Leaky leaky!

So... I've noticed a bit of a leak in my Bullitt, under the car, mainly passenger side, between the inside side of the cats and the outside side of the tranny, somehwere in there.

Its a clear odorless liquid so im guessing water. Also, when I shut the passenger door I heard a hisss when it shut.

Anyone encounter this before? I will probably take her to the dealer tomorow morning to be looked at

Been running your air conditioner much? It sounds like condensation from your ac. The hissing sound is probably the condensation dripping onto your passenger manifold.
My car does it, but my car does some crazy things.

Mine does the same thing when I run the AC, I don't see water but you can hear the hissing when you close the door after you turn it off and the drips of the condensation for a bit while everything cools down.

I've never had a car with AC before, and the AC just got repaired recently lol, so this totally caught me off guard.

The Bullitts had AC forever, but it wasnt working for the longest time. Just got a fixed a little while back and I just noticed the hissing dripping two or three days ago.

I'm so glad I didn't take the car to the dealer to have it looked at lol

Yep Headlight fluid... A chick that I work with got tricked into having her headlight fluid changed when she got her new car. She came in and told everyone to go have it changed at the dealer because they were having a sale on it.

Mustangs really are... I bought an antivirus for my cars computer the other day, and it was hard just trying to find where to install it. Can you believe that they didnt give me instructions on how to install it?

You're losing your hero status. Real men don't need instructions
