4 warning signs you need an oil leak repair
Oil leaks can originate from a variety of locations, including seals, the oil pan, and the valve cover. You will pay less for repairs if you catch them early. Keep an eye out for these four typical indicators:
- The most obvious indication that oil is leaking is dark puddles beneath the car and brown or black stains on the ground.
- Oil dripping onto hot engine parts is typically indicated by a strong burnt smell.
- Blue or gray smoke coming from the engine bay indicates that oil is burning and may be a fire hazard.
- Low oil level: If you continue to add oil in between services, a leak most likely needs to be fixed.
