jim_hoyland · 12-01-2015, 05:27 AM

Found a small amount of oil on the garage floor; took '98 Box to my regular mechanic to see where it was coming from. He indicated it's the Oil-Air Seperater.

I read up a little and have a question: Should OEM be used or are there suitable replacements ? Should hoses be replaced too ? Can someone point me to a thread that had covered this topic too.

Lastly, if it is the AOS, how fast should I get it replaced ?

Thanks,
