After going over a speedbump earlier (had to drive over it normally rather than going down the middle like I normally do) and hearing a bit of a thunk, the car now has a leak...
It's a LHD 280z, and after getting it home there is a leak dripping down from above the transmission but in the tunnel. It seems like it's only water - likely coolant, as the copper pipes inside the engine bay are now getting covered in condensation (either I never noticed this condensation before or it's new).
It only seems to do it whilst the car is running and the system is under pressure, but I can hear a slight hiss. Pic shows where the leak is on the floor, and it's coming from above there. Any advice on what to look for or what it could be under there is much appreciated. Hope to get it lifted at the weekend to look properly.
(Also, potentially unrelated, but my oil pressure gauge keeps fluctuating from a quarter to half, whereas I thought this should be static?)
