Re: OIL LEAK HELP!!!! take a can of brake cleaner from the parts store, crawl under the car and clean it.
you have to clean it very good in the area where you think the leak is.
then, once you get the car clean of all the oil ect, you need to drive it for about 10 minutes or so.
crawl back under the car and see if you can locate the oil leak.
also, oil has a tendency to fall or move downward.
check valve cover gaskets ect..
you should be able to locate the leak better once its clean.
