Took the car out today for a little bit but I discovered some drops of fluid toward the front passenger side.
It's greenish yellow and very slimey. Any guesses??
I can see it under my transverse leaf spring bracket but that's it.
Nothing is dripping heavily or appears ripped/ disconnected. Car is a 2015 Z51.
Hopefully the dealer can look at it fast, but I'm open to any thoughts or ideas on what it may be?

Can't think of any fluids that would be that color. Maybe you just ran through someone else's antifreeze and it splashed up on the spring. Clean it off and see if it comes back.
You might check the belt tensioner on that side.

Its either coolent or the green dye in the AC oil, our 14 stingray had a leak in the AC and had small green dots on our garage floor. Correction coolent is red

UPDATES:
It was the AC condenser. Just a small leak, but they ordered me a new one under warranty and are putting it in tomorrow morning.
Thanks again for all the help and advice. Not a major problem but it's good to know it can be fixed so quickly.
