Front "bushings" shot on C230K.
The large bushings at the front of the "control arms" are shot and leaking a disgusting runny black fluid
which, I assume is what's left of the lubricant that was in there from the beginning. This stuff is so nasty
it has eaten through the epoxied floor of my concrete coated garage! So, if you see a watery black fluid
under your car, up in front, ahead of the wheels somewhat but on either side, and it's not motor oil or anti-freeze,
guess what? It's the bushings leaking. I think they leak for a while until all the old junk is out of there and then
they stop when all the junk is gone. Sounds right, anyway. Car has 107,000 on it now and it's an '05. Yeah, I know.
I drive it.
