The car did this when I first got it but I never knew where it was coming from until yesterday when my dad was repairing a broken oil pan bolt(opps
) and the leaky turbo drain/oil pan connection while I was in class. We found that the oil pan was 100% sealed FINALLY and there was a slight oil film running down the alternator/secondary air mounting plate. We noticed oil on both sides of the cover in the rear bottom corners. The headgasket was replaced at 27K and I've run this car twice at the dyno pulling several 6400-6500rpm pulls each time so I think I would have already lifted the head or spun a bearing if the headgasket was bad(The headgasket should be the updated one anyway). So yea I'm going to pick up the needed gasket(s) tommorrow after class and replace this thing but I've heard there is some kind of pesky ass pin that needs to be removed? Please help, I have no idea how to take it off but if I get some direction I can hurry up and get this thing replaced.
Currently sitting on 53,333 miles if thats of any significance.
