I have look below the engine after an oil change and look what i saw......a leak above the oil drain bolt. I am now assuming that it has came from the oil filter when i removed it (unlikely because it is quite far away). Anyway, i have clean it all up and will check on tommorow.

kinda, i have a oil leak on my d16a8, somewhere around the main seal (i think)

even when i clean the engine i still could not see where it was coming from !!

can you put some sort of dye in the engine to help find oil leaks ?

cheers
