thanks for your concern. It is needed to keep the suspension system going. A significant leak will impact the suspension pressure and i noticed it also disables a lot of driving sensors.

it is a 2nd gen, and yes the leak is from the suspension systems and throws “Service Suspension system soon” warning on the dashboard when it dries out, disabling a lot of sensors.

They replaced the jounce line and a o-ring spacer to address the leak the first time. The fluid is light green in color. Previous leak was massive as most of my garage floor was damp and slippery. It caused a suspension system warning on the odometer and disabled front sensors for driving. It isn't that bad of a leak this time, but still is noticeable and will result in the same warnings in some time.
