Oil leak

The OMP tubes have copper crush gaskets......might be loose, try and tighten them up. The pump itself has an o-ring type gasket that might leak.
Front seal leaks will often end up in the same area,,,best to clean up and try and figure out where the new oil comes from

I remember a while back i told them i suspected a leak and he said ohh its nothing that the mechanic checked it because of the mileage it had.. just like they check that my car has no broken windshield when its cracked lol and they say my clutch needs replacement when it was recently done. in the paper work he checked the box that said leaks detected..... As far as the paper work i left it in my friends car and never got it back.. his girl took his nuts so he doesnt talk to his friends anymore.. no contact with him anymore.
The dealership is roger beasly mazda on burnet road
I have a appointment at Premier mazda in georgetown tx.. i just didnt want to lose hope in that dealer ive been going there for the past 4 years till now.. and well i wont go there anymore

simple.. if the dealer is telling you other wise. ask the service manager if you can use his phone.. and dial the mazda na phone # in your owners manual..
they will fix it before that call is completed. or they will wish they had.
yes you have to have ***** to do it.. but it has to be done..

umm do i have an oil leak?
i topped the oil off with 3/4 a quart three days ago putting it close to the full line on the dipstick
ive been running it pretty hard mostly city driving the last couple of days since i filled it not babying it at all
but i checked the oil yesterday and today and its at half on the dipstick?
does the renesis really burn that much oil?
i use mobile one 5w 30 sythetic extended performance im in georgia and its summer could it just be the oil im using or could their be other problems?
oh and its a 04 with 65,000 miles on it
and the oil level warning light has been coming on even though the dipstick says its fine it will come on after running the car for a little while but if i turn it off then back on it wont come back on until after i run the car for a period of time

thats simple
but i was wondering why it was burning so much oil
is it common for everyone elses 8 to burn that much oil over the course of a couple days of running?

cuz if i had done 900 miles it would be time to get it changed again if anything i did 250-300
ive had my trip meter running for a few weeks and its 580
so i dont know why its eating oil like a fat kid at a buffet

ok guys well its been a while since got my OMP replaced.. but again i have recently started leaking oil again.. pooling in the same areas!
I cleaned the ENTIRE area and its pooling right under the OMP pump as before.
Only thing is im not under powertrain warranty anymore =[[[
Taking it in to the dealership on friday to get it checked out.. seems to be leaking just after 16 k miles or so..

Just read this thread I have posted my problem here My oil leak...Mine seemed to show up after I hit the track or run it hard. Is this covered under the 100kmil warranty? Have oil all over my engine bay. And it is really hard to determine where it is coming from

Has anyone experienced any oil leaks????
I currently have a 2005 51,000 miles
i have lately noticed that i have to top off the oil level more frequently..right now its at 2 1/2 quarts in 2,400 miles its not a big leak as to say it leaves a puddle on my driveway but just not when i got under it i notice that there is little seapage and oil little drops accumilating in front of the oil pan where the pulleys are its also oil dripping on the oil pump..... is there a common problem that i need to address?????? i took it to the dealership to get some warranty done since they said it was out at 50 K miles and they said it had a leak but did not repair it under warranty.. they said ohh its no big deal the car has 50 K miles.. its normal
maybe the crank seal??
Any insight on this issue is helpfull!
thanks

I have an 04 with 55,000 and have a oil pan leak, dealer wants around $200.00 parts/labor etc. I just call Mazada Cust Sr and they said that just the core of the rotary is covered and the oil pan gasket was not covered.
I do have a Route 66 extended waranty which is coving new motor mounts and the AC/Heater board - which is nice.
Thanks

Oil pan gasket (silicone) is covered under the 128,000km warranty. Been there done that, after bitching of course.
As for the quoted part...sounds like the eccentric shaft seal leak (which I have boo), it is covered under the extended engine warranty 160,000km.
