I did a oil change on the car and noticed oil on the trans towards the back of the motor. I can't see where it's coming from and I haven't had time to pull the air cleaner box to get a better look. Valve cover is newer and isn't leaking. Any advice would be great. 2011 MCS.

 

Unusual. I would suspect the oil filter housing as it seems to come from the front engine side. I'm sure you looked as much as you could. Other than that, engine seal (the one behind the pressure plate)?

 

Possible that the starter itself is leaking. I believe it's an oil encased motor. Have you noticed the starter motor making more noise when engaged?

 

nope, starter makes no noise and car fires up like normal.

 

Maybe the o-ring of the fuel pump, or vacuum pump combined with parking on an incline?

 

I was just thinking about the fuel pump. Ill have to dig into it here in the next few days. The fuel pump is only a little over a year old so I wouldn't think it would be it but very well could be.

 

Are you seeing oil on top of the tranny?
