Wow. That's bleeding pretty bad. I would assume it is the power steering fluid (looks like it has a reddish tint like the PS fluid they used in previous years).

I believe there is a PS cooler on the passenger side front grill. If I had to guess based on your pictures, this is where I would check first.(It's probably leaking, and then when the fan comes on, it's blowing it all over as you drive).

Either that, or the front lifting shock is leaking - again, I think they are still using the PS pump to activate the lift system. But I don't have a 560 (yet), so I can't give you any more help...

But it's an 09...So right back to the dealer for you...

I am just as puzzled? They said all lines are fine and the fluids they use are clear?

my initial reaction before reading the thread, was that you drove though some soda pop syrup or something on the ground. mainly due to the location in the fender wells, and being all contained to one side

only one way to be sure... you should taste the fluid. if it's sugary it's pop, if you get violentally ill you should call the dealership... oh ya seek medical attention.
