How far do you drive everyday. That can simply be condensation.
Down there where the arrow points is the turbo and theynare water cooled. So there might be a leak.

Not very far...my day is full of short trips.
And yeah I've been losing water over the last 6 months so it definitly would have looked more funky.

I'm gonna strip out and take a look but I'm pretty sure I've found my leak...Will try and take a video of it happening today just as a reference
