      Question Short Drives vs Long Drives

      When I take short Drives everything works great, when I take longer trips over 30 miles, things start to leak underneath. Any others have this issue?

      Specifically what thing? Oil things, water things, transmission fluid things, windshield fluid things, and AC condensation things are the things that can leak. Maybe take a picture?

      I get condensation even with short trips then again I live in the south.
      Please do not power off, firmware update pending.....

      yeah the type of leak is somewhat critical to this equation

      and where said leak is located is also critical.

      reddish brown is usually a sign of a transmission fluid leak
