Yup, saw this one coming!!!
there is a reset procedure for the cluster for people that just refuse to listen. Grant from Platinum (and member here)explained it to me once, but that was quite some time ago and I don't remember what it was, call your Dealer and maybe they will run it down for you. If the reset procedure doesn't correct the problems with the Pod then a replacement Pod can cure the problems for about $7K, - or enough to buy a good used tow truck for next time.
The "fluid" on the passenger side sounds like it is coming from the Power Steering/Hydraulic Shock resovouir which is behind the CF panel.
