I just got my H3 about a week and a half ago. I have been noticing some fuild leaking out on the driverside front end. I took the tire off to check things out and the only place that I could find fluid is under the front dirverside shock?? It looks like brake fluid or power steering fluid, but almost appears like it is coming out of the bottom of the shock. I can not see anywhere where it is coming down from the engine and the surrounding area is dry. I know this is a crazy question, but is there fluid in the shocks on these??

Anyone have anysuggestions or similar problems?

Could be a blown shock.
