Hi,

My wife's car is a 2004 c70. I had noticed some blue drips near the front passenger side front tire. Right in front. First thought was window cleaner but an closer inspection it's radiator fluid.

After looking all over it appears to be coming from the lower hose of the pressure reservoir tank. I tightened it up but would still see occasional blue dots. Today it belched out a bunch. Also, my electric fan never seems to come on. Seems to me I'm having an overheat but the temp guages doesn't go into the overheat range.

I've read up a little bit but if someone can handhold a little bit I would certainly appreciate it.

Here is what I know. Plastic resivor bottle seems to be fine. Hoses are fine. Water is blue. I plan to start by turning on the air cond to see if the fan kicks on....will you confirm?
If not lift out the relays and jump the yellow/yellow white wires to ground to see if they come on....will you confirm? If the runs than best bet is the temp sensor under the t-stats even though the guages seems to be working???

Seems like it must be overheating but I don't get it because the guages reads normal. Also, can someone confirm which kind of coolant because I seem to be confused on that. Never seen blue coolant. Can I just use Preston from the auto parts store or does it require special stuff.

Thanks,
Matt
