When I got
home last night I noticed fluid coming out of the front of the engine bay just in front of the radiator. I am 100% sure it's not radiator fluid because the radiator is full it's it's a little bit darker. My brake/clutch fluid is more than halve gone and I am guessing it's that. Why would it be leaking from the front?

May not be either, what colour is it, what does it smell like? Auto cooler lives there and is oil(red) coolant is either green or red, brake fluid would be light to dark brown and smell like brake fluid....could be squirting from under bonnet somewhere, if you push pedal, and it sinks, it is fluid, if not, it is just pads worn away and oil has taken their place in pistons...
check the pads soon if you find no leak.

It's a off brown looking colour. Pads are brand new been on there for about 2 months. I am pretty sure it's brake or clutch fluid I checked the levels 3 days ago and they were all full and all of a sudden it's halve empty
