I know that all Vanagon leaks must be attended to ASAP, but I'm wondering if
there's a little "leeway."  I last had my van serviced in August, 2008, and
have only put less than 3000 miles since then.  Lately I've been using it
daily, for 30 mile round trips.  On Friday I discovered a leak in the rear;
something blue; about a 2" spot from 8am to 4:30 pm, and when parked
overnight, about a 3" spot.  Of course it took a few days for me to figure
out that it was MY leak spot, and not one that was already in the parking
space.

How much time/miles does one reasonably have before taking it into the
shop?  I was planning to take it in tomorrow morning.
Thanks.
