[QUOTE="jarance, post: 448047, member: 21"] Looking at the picture, you seem to have a oil leak coming somewhere and it still leaking. Best is to sent for car wash to wash away all the oil stain and check for new stain after a few driving a few days to identify the source of the leak. It could be an oil seal problem. I can see the some oil stain on the control arm. Please check your rubber bushing. They are also oil filled and will leak oil when the bushing are damaged. [IMG]http://i926.photobucket.com/albums/ad105/dexterbmw/2.jpg[/IMG] The reservoir bottle is for the power steering. Sometime over filling will cause the ATF oil to spill out. As for me, I also have this problem and my problem was due to the worn out gasket at the cap. I just cut a small ring using oil gasket and the problem is solved.
