[QUOTE="nizan1979, post: 26378, member: 13108"] I have recently changed the engine oil sump gasket. After about 2 weeks, I can still notice some leaking on the parking floor. Went to the mechanics today that did this job and true enough still some leak coming out from the edges near to the gearbox as picture below:[IMG]http://i1207.photobucket.com/albums/bb461/nizan1979/SungaiBuloh-20110905-00025.jpg[/IMG][/IMG]The mechanic put on some sort of glue (grey color) around the leak area to verify leaking source. After about an hour plus of idle engine run, still noticing some leaking not from the gasket but from somewhere between the engine and gearbox. He said it could be the seals between engine and gearbox and this job is very labor intensive to do since you need to remove the gearbox as well. Anyone experience this before? [/QUOTE]
