coolfgxr6t Member 30 Member For: 13y 29d Posted 27/11/14 06:39 AM Posted 27/11/14 06:39 AM I noticed a couple drops of oil on the ground yesterday. Had a look under and it appears to be coming from front of sump, oil filter area. Car got serviced only a month ago and oil leak wasn't picked up. Thought filter might have been loose so tightened it a bit but today there is another drop of oil. Car just ran out of warrenty last month. Any ideas?

Its just weird it has started so suddenly. Bit annoyed I thought I have finally bought a car new enough to not leak on driveway. I was wrong haha
