After doing 30 minutes of searching on oil leaks, I still am not compelled I have found my leak.
After the last wreck with my wife in a parking lot, I notice my '99 se is dripping/leaking oil.
Nothing major compared to the blown rear main seal of my explorer, but it's dripping.
Dealer didn't even say anything when I took it in for an oil change this last weekend.
Assuming it is just a pan gasket, are these a nightmare to do?
I was looking, and I just am like what in the heck were they thinking? You can't get directly at all the bolts?!?
I noticed oil driping down onto the exhaust manifold / y pipe, and I am praying it's not anything higher up, like in the valley pan.
I was looking through the other posting about oil everywhere, and no such issue on my SE, just drip, drip, drip. The oil has been collecting on the 2 studs on the pan rail towards the passenger side.
My car is not loosing oil, just want to take preventative car if it needs something.
Any advice on the proper method would be great.
Bad enough a buddy hit a chunk of a road kill deer , and I have to swap the pan on his car now this weekend.Thanks in advanced for the info.
