it could also be your master cylinder leaking into the brake booster and the vacume line is sucking the brake fluid into the engine
when brake fluid goes threw the engine it comes out looking like condinsation

sooo my question is have you had to top up your brake fluid or has the level gone down fasted than usuall??

It's normal for a bit of water to come out, but it shouldn't be dripping out the back or anything.

Yeah it was dripping out the exhaust on my car. left a small puddle around the size of about 3 inches. But it was idling for a while.. Was also black **** in the water, but that woulda been out the zorst.

Also nothing else has needed to be topped up. Brake fluids, oil, power steering... Nothing. Its all stayed perfect except for the coolant.

It could be the oxygen sensor. Is your car also running rich at the same time?

do you fill the tank each time or do you only put like $10 at a time etc. it's better to keep the tank reasonably full cause if it's always empty during the night when it cools down water can condesate on the inside of the tank from the moisture in the air. just a thought anyway
