Well, from the way it sounds, the FRONT main oil seal... They tend to leak after some miles... Parts stores sell a new seal and repair sleave for it since it typically happens because a groove gets worn on the crankshaft... And this comed from somoone who sells parts for a living :wink: I've sold several of them within the part year...

 

Just pull your wheel off and look if the harmonic balancer is coated with oil or not... That will give you a better idea

Brad, last chance. I'll give ya $1,744.20 for it !!!

That's it? lol

 

I would sell it to you, but I have to have a car for the time being...If I get a new car soon I'll sell it to you if I can, rather than trading it in.

Cuz I know you'll fix it up :wink:

WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

 

 

Did I say rear main seal?

 

Nice try.

 

 

That would be obvious to see oil leaking from the front.

 

 

 

 

 

However that is a good start . . . .taking off the wheel.

 

 

 

 

:rolleyes:

I love INTRIGUES !!!! Did you know that the cars equipped with the Precision Control System have a higher first gear ratio it's 3.29 :1 with PCS 3.05:1 without it. I need to get a PCS car to see what she tops out at with the H rated tires and the Autobahn package.
