Help,
Ive got an oil leak!, When i stop the car im getting 1 or 2 drops off the bottom of the sump, had a closer look and it looks to be running down the timing belt side of the sump, as far as i can see its coming from above the sump seal, so crankshaft seal?
Replaced rocker cover gasket a few weeks ago as as far as i can see thats all fine and not leaking
There isnt any oil on the timing belt, but there is a covering of oil all over the suspension parts directly behind the alternator (i assume its blowing backwards when driving)
The oil level isnt dropping very much at all, i can hardly notice any difference between checks, just maybe 1mm below max (was on max about 200/300 miles ago).
Im thinking of swapping the car in 4/5 months, Is it a urgent repair? or will it hold out until i part ex it?
How much am i looking at for the seal changed?
Thanks
