I think the exxon-like oil slick under my car is coming from the rear main.
I have cleaned it all up today and cleaned all the breathers out and check my oil levels - it was on low. Topped her up then had to drive up to the sunshine coast.
Turned up here, car stinks of oil and I have oil all over the gbox and all the way up to the rocker covers.
I know the rocker covers are rarely troublesome - it is hard to tell where it is coming from, it is a 1991 3.9 and I have covered just over 200,000K
Any advice ?
Cheers
Tom
