Oil leaks

[DShen]

Thanks for the welcomes! The Porsche community is very supportive from what I've seen so far, so I'm happy to be here!

I'll try to scale down my photos next time. Bigger the better though, right?

Spark plug tubes, eh? Guess I'll be ordering some new tubes and sparkplugs.

Any idea what the leaky boot is on the first pic?

Is this the boot you are referring to?


Oil has leaked *onto* that, not *from*.
That's a dust boot on the spherical bearing of the rear track arm (trailing arm/control arm/rod thingie).

Yes that boot. I'll have to inspect it again - not sure how oil reached this boot! It's kind of isolated from the spark plug tube leak. Thank you!

Plugs and tubes, gravy. Check the coils while you're there. Cracks will be an enemy. good luck.
