Okay so im outside and i figure to go ahead and check the bolts on my sway bar. Well when i crawl under the car the front of the spare tire well is soaked. It starts from the rear axle. In front of it is dry. Its like a gel substance. No smell at all. Anyone have any ideas.

THat looks like the gas tank.......:eek:

Run over anything that might have splashed?

Im hoping. Its weird. I swear it looks and feels like hair gel. What is that module attached to the axle?

That's your EVAP. There is no grease back there. If you don't smell fuel you must of picked it up somewhere. Were you driving at a high rate of speed in reverse?

I would wash it off and check it in a couple of days.

Also check your front CV boots and make sure the grease isn't coming from there.

Thanks. No residue coming from the front. Ill wipe it and keep an eye on it.

Its funny earlier it felt weird driving. Like the back was sliding around. Just something felt off.. Maybe its my mind that was off. :D

Yea gel on the rear tires would do that.. Hopefully it was just some road debris gel & nothing else..
