The filter for sure is tight, I checked it multiple times.

I will go down and change it, but I am skeptical, too much oil.

Last night I was looking at the garage floor, every foot there is a drop of oil along the muffler, as if the oil is in the pipe and drops from there.

Mind, the car drives nicely, no more coolant leaking and everything sounds great.
BTW, I noticed a lot of condensation in the expansion tank, I never saw that before, I mean the old tank, why's that?

Should the filter be the problem, that means that while driving the pressure is huge, and sprays out everywhere.

Let me change it to Mr. MANN and see if that resolves.

I will keep you posted.

Thank you,
Alessandro
