Titanium Grey FD in Vancouver, Canada / Seattle, WA

Purchased the car about a month ago. The engine is pretty much stock and I've noticed that oil is seeping from the twins. I'll be getting used to the car for a while to establish a baseline first.

​​​​​​Thanks for reading and here is a photo...

First day of ownership

BC Grey Days Ahead

Nice car. Suits the Northwest. Check out the Westcoast Rotary Activity thread under Canadian regional forums. Come out and join us sometimes. Mark July 7th 2018 for the next Sevens' Day.

OIl leak could come from the oil feed tubes above the turbo, of course. But also watch for oil blowing back into that area from other places.....front engine cover/water pump housing, etc. Cracks in the OMP lines couild also be a source (if you still have them).
