An oil leak occurs when engine oil escapes from your vehicle's lubrication system through worn gaskets, seals, or damaged components. Oil leaks range from minor seepage to significant leaks that can cause engine damage if ignored.
Common leak sources include the valve cover gasket, oil pan gasket, rear main seal, front crankshaft seal, and oil cooler lines. Each requires different repair procedures and has different costs. Proper diagnosis is essential before repair.
At E1 Auto Care, we don't guess at oil leaks. We clean the engine, add UV dye if needed, and pinpoint the exact source before recommending repairs. This prevents wasting money fixing the wrong leak while the real one continues.
