Hey everyone,
My celi's always had a leak for as long as i can remember, but just one or two drops, nothing major. now...  I have some pics of underneath the car, the leak is more passenger side on the ground. ALOT of oil is settled on this thing  And the whole backside of the engine block appears shiny. (doesn't look shiny in pics though..)  And this is the oil pan, it appears to be really oily, but idk if thats cause the oil settled there or if it originated fromthere.  Any ideas? I can take more pics if need be. THANKS everyone!

But that would mean power steering fluid,right? cause im sure its the motor oil cause the color of the leak reflects the color of the motor oil always. When the oil is black so is the leak, and now i have fairly new oil and its amber. always a possibility its the p/s leaking too and its mixing, but then again no p/s fluid is missing from the reservoir.

Top off both the oil and power steering and check them in a week to see which is low. -------------------- 1999 Celica GT
