My 320 has sprung a leak a large pool of water appeared under the front on the nearside, it seems to drop from above the fog light and there is a wet patch just behind the head cover, it doesn't appear to have lost an coolant or screen wash! i'm stumped?
Also after driving the water is cold so must rule out coolant??????
Help please

If it has headlamp washers, then the white backcheck valve (in the pipe, six inches from the jet) has probably failed, and the water is coming out the vent hole.

zimmerbimmer1 will supply you with a new one. About £3, IIRC.
