As stated in the caption - my Z is leaking oil somewhere....and I'm not sure where.
It's not a lot, but there are several drops on the floor after the drive. The car has the factory undertray and the oil dripping only drips on the very edge of it, causing it to end on the garage floor.
So today I went to investigate, completely sure I'd fix the issue by tightening either the oil cooler lines or something else that I screwed up....but there was nothing like that.
Instead I identified the following - the oil pan seal is oily, so I'm suspecting it's leaking oil all around.
I took a 10mm and went around the screws, but they're all tight. I didn't want to retighten them, because I'm not sure if I'd break any of the loctite seals, so I just checked if they are tight - and they are. There was one screw that I couldn't check because it's covered by the front undercarriage (or is there a different name for it?) and I simply can't reach it.
Next to the oil pan, I noticed one oil line that I assume circulates oil around the engine - was suspiciously wet around the edges, so I added another clamp to make sure it's not leaking:
Then I looked ahead, and this part is mysteriously oily where the holes are:
Not a lot, just a few drops here and there around some holes - but I can't figure out why, how and from where??
I looked around, pointed my phone camera and lighted around - all is super dry
So....any ideas? I think that if it's just a leaky oil pan - it's a hassle, but not something crazy that must be fixed asap - so I'd fix it in a few weeks, as I totally have no patience to do it these days. I suspect I just drop the oil pan, thoroughly clean it, us an RTV, seal it and that's that? I'm just not sure about that one screw that's completely unreachable - do I need to unscrew half of undercarriage to reach it?
Thanks for all inputs!
