That's not even the correct side of the car to be washer fluid from an over filled reservoir. The washer reservoir is on the passenger side. I would say that looks like soapy water from the car wash more than anything.

I've had the opposite experience when my car was on the Porsche Maintenance Plan. They didn't refill the washer fluid at one service so I got the refill washer fluid message. I do my own service now.

Ummmm... he said "next to the passenger side front tire" - and it looks like the starboard side to me (which is where my reservoir is located..) Color me puzzled..

"They all do it" is their standard response - meaning "we don't know and we'd like it if you would just leave now".

If the fluid is green and oily it might be PS fluid although the PS reservoir & pump are on the LHS.
