I parked the H2 in the driveway for about 2 hours yesterday and I noticed 4 or 5 spots of fluid in about a 1 foot square area (some appear to be black spots (oil?) and other spots seem red?). It is not coming from the engine compartment, it is about halfway down the vehicle under the back seats.

I plan to cal the dealer tomorrow (he is 100 miles away), and I cannot waste a whole day taking it there. I thought I would get the thoughts of the wonderful people on this site.

Any ideas? Thanks in advance. P.S. Hummer haters SUCK!

If you have leaks take it to the dealer.

DUH! Real smart answer, moron. Anyone can figure that one out.

I had the same on my garage floor (except the red fluid). The black seemed to be coming from the muffler weep hole. Moisture accumulates in there and comes out when you first start up. Check it overnight if the water dries up the black spot will just be soot.

OH, be sure to look at the driveshaft. Just on the off, rare chance the leak is running down from the trans.

FEVER< I think you are right. Water condenses in their as the exhaust cools down. If it is not oily or red it is probably water!

Thanks for all the input guys. The fluid is definately red, I put a white sheet down overnight and there were a couple of spots.

Called the dealer today, the first appointment was Thursday. I'll cross my fingers and hope it is minor. Hopefully I don't give them an H2 and the give me a Cavalier or something.

Could be Brake, Transfer case, Oil or Shock oil.

Red spots on the sheet? Does it only happen once a month?

You should ask Dennis about it. He is always leaking something.

Ooohhh, Damn. Welcome to the forum!

Sweet. She catches on quick.
What part of Cali are you from, Cali?
Most importantly, did you make the intelligent & wise choice and go with pewter?

I'm going back to Cali...Cali...Cali...naw I don't think so.

Well, I got the H2 back from the dealer today. Surprise, surprise, all looks fine to them. They cleaned it up underneath, checked it out and it isn't leaking. Sooooo, I drive the 60 miles home, pull into the garage, walk around back and see transmission fluid splattered all the way up the back as if I drove home on wet pavement. Of couse the service department is gone for the f'ing day.

On top of that, not only is it leaking worse in the same spotas before, it is also leaking in the back end also. I dont know if it caked on form the leaks up front, or if it a new leak.

This time I want the dealer to come and get it, and I want an H2 for a loaner. Is this asking too much? God I am pissed!

Thanks for letting me vent.

You're going to call the GM of the dealership and rip him a new a-hole. You're going to inform him that he's going to send a flatbed out to haul your H2 back to the shop AND they're going to bring you a loaner of equal value ASAP.
If you don't want to, PM me with the info and I'll do it for you. I HATE INCOMPETENT SERVICE TECHS, WRITERS & MANAGERS!!!
