Oil leak

Recommended Posts

Ive got oil forming and dripping at the base of my sump. It looks like its coming from the sump plug area, which is in tight enuf. Its not much of a leak, more of a seap.

 

Im prolly just gonna get a new plug and washer and do an oil/filter change while im at it, altho i only did one 1000 miles ago. Rekon that should sort it?

if it's leaking quite a bit, clean it all off and see if it's leaking from just ABOVE the sump plug... :|

 

The sumps on the 4 cylinder cars are known for going porus and leaking oil THROUGH the metal... :roll:

 

Good news is that they're less than £25 inc seal from Euro or GSF and aren't too difficult to fit, just a bit of a pain due to working above your head all the time... 8)
