Oy Vey!! Synthetic oils do not cause leaks!!! They do however leak/flow much more easily than conventional oil. If you have a leak after converting to synthetic you have three options. Fix the leak, live with it, or go back to dino. The leak was either about to occur before the change or it was very small and you didn't notice it. RT
