Bad oil leak
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone, this is my first post on the forum.

I'v just driven my car after it being stood for around 6 months. I got to where i wanted to go then my dad noticed oil was leaking out very badly, it was like a tap.

It's coming from the passenger side at the front and drips on to the plastic tray underneath the engine. Iv taken 2 pictures from the bottom but there's no sign of any leak from the top.

Any ideas what it is, absolutely gutted.

most likely an oil cooler or oil cooler line/fitting

Thanks for the reply, i did thing it was coming from a pip and not the actual engine.

Do you know roughly what it's going to cost? if it is what you say i'm hoping it's a line and not the cooler itself.

i have lines and coolers for sale if you need one. remove the front bumper and splash shield to find out where its coming from
