So, i been driving on my new engine, 1st 300 miles not a drop of oil, i was so happy. But around 350 i noticed i started getting a few drops of oil everytime i pulled into the garage. I think its the oil pan but it just seems a little akward from where the dripping is happening. The oil gathers in the drivers side where the motor mount sit into the ppf and drips below it from the frame. Nothing drips from under the oil pan. That side of the engine looks good when you look in from the top, and the oil pan on that side has oil on it along the seam, but it doesnt look like its seeping out it just looks like its been hit by the oil since its so close to where the dripping happens. I dont know, help me out guys.

 

Wash the bottom of your engine off throughly at the car wash. Then get under it later with a strong light and pinpoint the location. Probably the oil pan as it is prone to leak. If so get yourself a GARFINKLE oil pan brace here before your repair starts. Research the procedure and get your ducks ina row. Use "The Right Stuff" sealant.

Sounds like the oil pan for sure.

 

so how come none of the oil drips under the pan directly why does it make that jump to the motor mount??

 

Fluids run before they drip.

 

thanks guys
