Weird black spots on driveway

[Lai93gt]

So I took my s550 to the track Friday night for the first time. Wasn’t happy with my performance, but I think overall I was just frustrated waiting 4 hours before I got my first pass.

My drive home was normal. Everything seemed fine with no issues.

Saturday morning as I’m leaving for work I notice a few black spots on my drive way. Due to me running slightly behind, I didn’t get out the car to do a check and see what the fluid may be. ( I should’ve checked by running my finger through it)

I went about my day to work and leaving work I didn’t notice any fluid on the ground (a sigh of relief).

When I got back home for lunch I was curious to see if it would leak fluid again. I didn’t notice anything. Another sigh of relief.

Since then I’ve gotten on the ground to see if I could notice any leaking from underneath, I didn’t see anything and I haven’t had time to put the car in the air.

I haven’t noticed anything since then but im just curious as to what it could’ve been. It’s been irking me to find out. It aligns with my oil pan considering my parking position in my driveway. But I recently got a oil change (a month ago) and I don’t think my oil would be that dark. The car isn’t showing any loss of oil on the gauages as well.

I know i don’t have all the necessary info provided not do i have any pictures at the moment but any help would be appreciated.


Thanks in advance,

Could just be condensation and dirt.

I was thinking it could be something like that as well. But it was very dark. Maybe tar from the track??

Could it be from another vehicle that parked in your driveway?

Didnyou have your oil changed recently ?

Recently put exhaust on your car? Could be dripping from mid pipe connection. Clamps loosen after numerous heat cycles

The isolated nature of the incident, and lack of clarity regarding whether or not the black spots endured exposure to the elements lead me to guess the OP ran through a curbside stream of dirty water. The fluid spun off the tires and dripped from the undercarriage. No big thang.

That’s messed up.

How do you think that's messed up. Could be UPS, FedEx, pizza delivery, wife's friend, another family member, etc.

No I park on one side and my lady on the other.

About a month ago. Don’t see why it would leak now

I was leavin for work about 10am. Unless my lady took my car for breakfast that’s highly unlikely. And she doesn’t touch my car lol, she’s too afraid of it.
