Probably, but I'd clean things up real good (Simple Green and a water hose would 
be good for this), dry things off, the leave it for a while to see if you can 
spot the source of the leak. If not, start the engine and see if that forces the 
leak. A bit of talcum powder will help pinpoint the source of the leak.

Yeah, 10 year old BMWs don't have issues. :)
