So I have a really bad oil leak. I'm not burning it and like the whole right side of my engine is just covered in oil and so is the under side around my oil pan but its not coming out of my valve cover I checked for that I think its coming out of the side somewhere and its not my oil filter cap either so any thoughts or suggestions of where it could be coming from on the right side of my engine?

 

if its coming from the driver side thats technically the left side of the vehicle as when you refer to a side of a vehicle its not the way you look at it but as if you were sitting in the drivers seat. so drivers side = left and passenger side = right.

now that could be almost anything, how far down does the leak start at, could be a leaking cam position sensor, could be a leaking oil fitler o-ring, could be the rear main seal leaking.

 

take it in to the dealer if your under warranty.

 

i bet you blew the welds on the intake manifold

 

Driver side so back of the engine. Idk what it is buts its kind of worrying me just the weird thing is is that my dipstick says my oil is full

 

Maybe you overfilled it and it ruptured at a gasket. Who knows. Take some pics, we can help.

 

ya pics would help alot.

 

Yeah, doubtful he has a 200 shot of nitrous though.

 

main seal leak? bed plate leak? oil pan leak? the bed plate and pan are sealed with silicone u know.

u said it reads full on the dip stick........ u sure its oil thats leaking? maybe its the right side axle seal and thats tranny fluid.

so i just put my car up on jacks and its not my transmission for sure because the leakin fluid is not red so its transmission fluid for sure and i parked in a clean spot on the driveway and it only leaks when its not running so im thinking it could be my main bearings that are making it leak but i really hope not. ill try to put pictures up a little later on. thanks for all your help guys

lol I think he got caught up in what he was saying, I'm assuming he meant its not transmission fluid... for sure.
