I have a fluid leaking on the front left (drivers side) under the radiator. it looks like power steering fluid. I do not see any leaks on the pump or on the resevour? where else could it be from? any ideas?

I am not reffering that they are related in any way just point of fact. I flushed the cooling system and then the next day I have a clear greasy type liquid that look a lot like PS fluid. I can not see where it is coming from The pump and hoses look dry.

Maybe you have the new coolant type in your car. Perhaps the drain cocky is leaking a little. I forgot the name of the new coolant type, but I know they are not green and look a little brownish in color.
DONT USE STOP LEAK!!!!!!!! Fix the problem instead. I used that stuff and found that the little ***** do not completely dissolve and instead, covered the bottom of my expansion tank with a potential clog.
