I've had a slow oil leak going for a while, and it's managed to cover a great deal of the underside of the car with oil. I put a towel under it one night to see where the leak was coming from, and it was dripping from somewhere above the dust shield. I took it off today to see if it was in fact the front cover, but no, it was the oil lines! This is very good news! Replacing those lines is pretty easy (well, except getting them off), and a lot easier than removing the front cover.
Just look at the oil cooler! I must have had some hot oil going through my engine.
Damn, I just replaced my oil about 3 days ago.

 

Holy crap!

Clean that up!

 

I did. Sprayed the whole thing with my hose. Even got all of the rocks out that always lodge themselves in radiator-like things
I forgot to take an "after" pic.

 

Those are usually referred to as 'fins'.

 

i'm saying radiator like things as in oil coolers, radiators, ac condensers, etc.

 

OWNED

 

is that a moth stuck to the oil cooler? wow dude.

 

I think that white area is part of a kitten.
