Freakin out even more... oil everywhere!
Well what I thought was a simple engine mount replacement may be a lot more now...
I drove the car to my folks place tonight to see if I could borrow their extra car for a week or so until parts come in for the engine mount replacement.. well when I get to their house and park, I see a trail of oil behind the car!! talk about a sickening feeling...
I look underneath the car expecting the worse and there is oil everywhere. the drain plug and the filter are clean though?? It appears to be somewhat centrally located (probably where it "settles" as it leaks and a bit more on the passenger's side. I can't pinpoint the area it is leaking from.
I heard no strange noises on the way over to their house (about 20 miles) except for the studdering which I believed to be related to the engine mount.
Dipstick reading read fine (when car was still hot after parking). What should I do first? where to check? I've got that reaaaally sick feeling that this is one of those expensive fixes. The worst part is not knowing what is broken.
I'm gonna try to snap a pic, but the angle is hard to get as I don't have the car on stands or anything.
