Hi all,

I am seeing oil leak from somewhere but I can't find the source. Is my rear main seal is leaking? If so, can I remove the aluminum engine support bracket under the engine for visual inspection without any support on the engine/tranny? Is there a way to find out whether my oil separator is clogged or not? I do have an OEM replacement, the one with hot plate seal. Thank you as always.


I checked these areas are for any leak. As you see my photos, the under carriage is fairly dry, I get these leak marks when I park the car.


just replaced all three front oil seals and they are good.
rear cam plug is dry
oil filter
oil plug
flame trap is clean on holes
there is no oil leak on oil separator area (clogged?) I don't know...

BTW, my transmission lines are good.
