Hey all,
I've had the run around with Dams ford down in Langley for the past 4 months. It started off with small whole that was leaking some oil. Then it was a pin whole leaking oil. Then I had to start filling out this sheet every time I put oil in and how many kilometers it was. Then I get the lovely statement "I need a new engine". Heres some history of the car.

1st owner bought it new on a lease and it ended up in a garage for 2 years because the owner became a heroin user and the parents stored it in their garage. 2nd owner was an older couple were the wife drove the car and the husband was a general mechanic for the township. Then I bought it last september and there was little to no problems. The car had 120 000 km on it when i purchased it and its now at 130 000 km. There has been nothing else wrong with the car other then the fuel gage getting stuck at full and the U-Joints needed to be replace. Thats it. Now the car is leaking oil. I dont know if its a direct leak from the engine which is why there is no oil marks on the undercarage or if its burning oil due to some bad piston rings. How can I check if its burning oil. On idle you cant smell anything. Driving behind the car you cant smell anything. If i take it to aircare could they tell? Or even bcaa? We had a misterious oil spot on the driveway that was either from my 96 mustang or a 2007 grand prix. I dont think it was the Grand Prix even though it is chevy. So I'm back at square one! And any opinions or suggestions would be very well appriciated.

Thanks alot.
Kevin.

 

Maybe when your driving it, and when it climes to full temperature the oil is pissing out while you drive it.

What I would do is get the car up to full temp, and full on oil and rev it up in your driveway "If your drive way is paved" then this should tell you if your leaking out at higher revs.

Good luck on the mystery oil leak.

BTW, check your rear main seal.

 

check your front main seal. and if your engine burns oil you would see blue smoke coming out of the tail pipe. also it could be your grand prix leaking oil.
i have a grand prix gtp and it was leaking allot of oil from the valve cover. if it is leaking from the valve cover on your grand prix there is actually a recall and they will fix it for free.

 

is your driveway on an incline? try parking the mustang somewhere else for a while to narrow down whether it is the stang or the grand prix that is leaking.

 

How mucha oilare you talking about a litre a week or a litre between changes how much. And is the engine making noise like knocks or ticks.
