When the car sits for several hours, there are two small oil leaks about 4 inches apart on the floor just inside the right front wheel. The oil does not appear to be engine oil, since that is due for a change and is dirty. This oil is more of a clear light gold color or maybe even colorless. I notice there is a small receptacle with a dip stick above and near this area, but I don't know what it's for. The oil level on the dip stick looks okay. Can you tell me what the problem could be before I take it to a garage? Thanks.
