Do anyone know what is the part that is circled in the picture? It seems like it is leaking oil (from the top)? Any of your help would be apprecited.

Thanks

I think it's the steering fluid

Oh, thanks. Do you think they overfilled it? Did any one else has a similar problem?

Its the steering fluid

they do tend to "leak " a little every now and then, especially if the dealers overfill them a bit.

Just wipe it clean with some disposable paper and make shure its cap is turned on all the way.

Then check it again in a few days
