Minor Engine Oil Leak


Williston

Recommended Posts

I just did the second oil change on my '08 Edge (7,500) and noted a minor oil drip/leak at the bottom of the engine casting that was not there at the 3,000 mi oil change. Most of the oil is accumlated on a small soft black plastic panel that is attached to the side of the engine casting with small plastic pins. (It's easy to see just ahead of the oil pan). The oil seems to coming from above somewhere as there was a small drip showing on another part just above this. It's not coming the oil pan, drain plug or the oft mentioned PTO seal... those are all dry except for some blow-back on the pan and bottom engine mount. It's also not from any oil spillage as a result of adding oil. Just thought I would throw it out there to see if anyone else is seeing this? Also wanted to give a head's up so you can keep an eye out. I'll have it looked at by the dealer but I'm trying to find the source.
