i just noticed this morning that i had a couple of drip spots on my driveway. :banghead::banghead::banghead: i jacked the car up and noticed that oil was dripping out of the bolt just above the oil plug. so i am lost the bolt was on tight but it looks like it might not be coming directly from the bolt....what do yall think it is??? the red arrow shows where the drip is exactly...

First Clean the oil off. I think the oil you see is from your motor mount that has cracked. I could be wrong. Do you notice rough idle? Look at the motor mount and see if you see any oil up there. The bolt from the aluminum engine mount bracket does not go into the oil pan.

More info about the car, Year Mileage, Mileage on the spark plugs and coils.

2004, 9k on new engine, spark plugs and coils idk...got it used. its a manual if that matters.

I bet the motor mounts are shot and are going to need new ones. Did you get a warranty with the car. But Clean the oil off first and see if it comes back again.

If it looks like the oil is coming from that bolt see if you can tighten it alittle more. Maybe that will stop it

It's a motor mount bolt, no oil is coming from it. You need to get it on a lift and see if the oil is coming from the engine itself. Maybe you spilled a little oil when you added? It doesn't look like a lot of oil to begin with. Have you checked your oil level is it lower than normal?
