WTF,

My coworker told me he saw a oil slick where I parked yesterday and it was around where my front drivers side tire was. When I got home I took off the tire and there was black oil ( I think it was oil, it was kinda watery though) in the inside of the wheel well. and at the bottom of the brake caliper ( a little). The brake hose looked ok with no signs of being wet, the top of the caliper was dry.

I did find some oil on the clinging to the bottom of my seized compressor (kinda a brownish color versus jet black) and some oil around my steering box seeping a little but nothing major.

It looked like the slick I left was about the size of a dollar bill folded in half.

I am extremely confused, but didn't get much time to look at it last night with the tire off. I took some pictures of the well area, but it wasn't really conclusive what was going on. I cleaned the wheel and put it back on , and sure enough when I arrived at work today there is oil back in the wheel well.

My shock looked like it wasn't wet, although it made a creaking sound when I was jacking up the front.

Help.... I will try to look at it longer tonight and report back....
