First SL500 I looked at had a clear fluid dripping from the right rear fender 
cavity drain.

Hmm.

Touch and rub it between fingers.  Not greasy or oily.

Hmm. Taste.

Yuck!

That's when I learned that one f the giveaways for certain top hydraulic 
cylinders leaking is drips out the body drains....
