    Only things it can be is coolant or screenwash. Just need to work out where its coming from... if u have a hosepipe..
    
    Run the engine see if it starts pissing water out if your coolant starts dropping just check over the coolant system. Just make sure u set the hose to a slow setting to compensate for what your loosing running the engine.
    (make sure when you fix the problem to put 50/50 mix of anti-freeze in)
    
    I await picture of said hole as i could be completly wrong lol

    don't think its coolant, its at the back of the car, between the rear wheel and exhaust pipe, where its just flat, it looks like there's a whole and its dripping from it, what is it? lol
