I really need your knowledge guys! I found that the reason my oil filter is dry is because my car is leaking a huge amount of oil right where the oil filter goes. Does anyone know how I can stop this and what I would need to do and change?
Thanks for your time

Idle issue is most likely due to a dirty IACV. Can take it off and clean it out.
