Jake - thanks for the response to my engine inquiry - good food for thought. I also just started my first oil leak - suspect RMS. (Ken J)


thanks,

WATCH OUT!!!
That may be the IMS starting to seep oil and thats a significant sign of imminent failure!

Look into that, especially if the oil is very black that leaks and has a nasty smell... Thats the oil that has been trapped in the IMS because the bearing has failed/failing/about to fail.
