If its coolant,it may be coming from the heater tap. If its clean water it could be just condensation from you AC

If its clean water it could be just condensation from you AC its water, and it seems to have used a bit of water also, because i check the over flow bottle was significantly down since i checked it which was friday last week, ive topped the bottle up with water, i noticed its leaking out the driver side now not passenger, but i also parked the opposite way up my driveway?

sounds like mine .... all mine is from my heater hoses going though the fire wall into the heater box is a little frade an fragial an has leaked water for months i just kept topping it up an have spare bottles in the car....
but yeah my guess is if you look to the right of the fire wall (pasanger) you'lll see 2 pipes going through it .. one or both of them might be the cause of the leak cheers Dan

Coolant leaks could be anywhere, from heater & radiator hoses, Welsh plugs, headgasket, thermostat housing, heater tap, water pump, coolant pipes, to a failing radiator cap.

I ran just distilled water in my car for like 3 years  ...mainly because it was slightly leaking and was damn lazy to replace the o-ring behind the water pump. So it would have been a waste to be filled up with coolant. Car still ran fine though.It would have also been good because if I was to go on the drag strip again, I'll just dump water rather than slippery coolant
