Default Is it a leak?
Dealer states they can't find a leak. They stated they used a black light and couldn't find a thing. Any ideas on how to clean this dampness off so I can see if it returns? Maybe a blocked rear axle vent? Driver's side rear diff

Dawn dish soap if it is oil scrub it off let it dry take picture of it dry. Drive it and see if it comes back.

Brake or electrical parts cleaner if the dish soap does not do the trick.

I agree.

Stop by a Walmart and pick up a can of cheap brake cleaner even if you use the Dawn soap.
