Large stain under engine, no smell...water from AC?
I just noticed this stain under my car last night. This morning I checked and it was dried out. No smell or residue on fingers when touched. Checked engine fluids and everything seems ok (didn't check engine oil as it doesn't seem to be an oil leak). The only odd thing I noticed was that the coolant reservoir
cap was a little loose. Any ideas?
Any chance the stain was there before you parked? This reminds me of a joke a friend of mine played on someone who had proudly rebuilt the engine in his car. My friend snuck outside and poured a quart of oil on the ground under the engine. Poor guy about had a heart attack thinking his fresh rebuild was puking oil.
Looks like AC to me. No smell, no color, no worries.
Ok, but the stain is dry and didn't evaporate overnight.

I thought about that but stain is dry...

I noticed the stain last night, it wasn't there before. To me the placement seems just too perfect to be from another source.
