rust colored stain on driveway...
...under my car (97 2.8l). Any ideas what this is from? I searched, but didn't find anything. I think it is from the water dripping from the air conditioner, but why would it stain my driveway? Nothing seems to be leaking.

Did you happen to fertilize your lawn recently?
Some fertilizers will do that when they get wet. Could it just be a coincidence you happened to drop some where you normally park? Just a guess....

It may be....
Depending on what type of pads you have, it may be the used brake dust rusting. Often after track events, I will wash the wheel wells and just like gold in a stream, the metal falls in the cracks of the driveway.
After a day or three, it starts to rust on the driveway.

Re: It may be....
No race pads, or hard driving for this car. It really seems to be from the water that drips out from the AC. But, I can't figure out why that would be rusty...I'll try to take a picture tonight to illustrate what I'm talking about

With this heat wave, MIP has been drying too quickly on me, spraying the pad w/ OG QD helps a little
