I could not determine exactly where this leak was originating. Any thoughts? Fluid on the belly pan, slight layer on the oil pan, seems to be moving along the tranny. Valve cover gasket? I did not check my oil level before changing so I'm not sure if I was low. No issues with leaky oil filter or plug.

problem is, that is the lowpoint. oil will always drip down there.

Look at the other pics too in his PPoster. The sides look pretty clean would you agree?

Best,

Also, I'm not experiencing any issues (slippage) with my clutch...

imo the #1 source of leaks is the valve cover, usually around the cam adjuster.

i HATE tracking down oil leaks!

with the valve covers down to the turbos oil lines oil pan.

what you see on tranny could be blowback, then again you could have several areas leaking, valve cover gaskets, cam tensioner gaskets, lower oil pan...any of them been replaced yet?
