I took my car to the shop to get new cv axles, battery cable, and a brake job. I also wanted them to see if they could fix the horendous oil leak ive got. They looked at it and said that it was unfixable and somethin about there being multiple leaks. Is it true that they cant be fixed or do you think they were just bull ****tin me because theyre lazy.

1. Wash down the engine block of all grime and grease
2. get an oil tracer dye kit and add the dye to the engine oil 3. happy hunting! 4. mark the leak with a grease pen and go to a mechanic (if you cant DIY) and point him to where the leak is and tell him you've used tracer dye. he'll be happy that you used dye. -------------------- |
