Oil Leak. Very small dot of oil after driving
anyone know what it would cost to fix a leak like this? from looking under the car it seems to be coming out from just behind the plastic cover under the front of the car. from bottom of the engine. will it get worse in the near future? I wanted to get a 2007 4.2 sometime in the next 6 months. should i get it sooner if possible?
Thanks,
Drew

About $3.99, if it is a weeping rotary shaft seal, for a bottle of engine snake oil. This treatment
stopped a weeping rear main seal on my 2.7T. Of course you could opt to replace the seal, rear main at about $800. maybe?

first shop thought it was the upper oil pan, took it in to get it fixed, turned out to be rear main seal. $1,600.00
