leaking oil from crankshaft

[lowridin2g]

well i got my t belt change done and i had to bring it back cause they didnt balance the balance shaft correctly. so i got it back and they admitted it was one tooth off. ok now its fine...............wrong!!!!!!! my oil light started flickering yesterday which was wednesday, i got it back from them monday. look underneath my car, oil is dripping out from the crankshaft. take off my timing belt cover and what do i find? oil !!!!!!! i had to put 3 qts. oil in it yesterday, it was that ;low. now u guys think they funked something up again or i just have a huge coincedence here and m,y car is fawkin walking????????

I would take it back again, especially if it wasn't leaking before, and you/they would've noticed when doing the t-belt. Bring it back!

Return the car and have them replace the front main seal and also re-time the car. The seal from the dealer is a few bucks. I would buy it because I wouldn't want them putting some generic stuff on my car.

If I were you, I'd have them check endplay while you're there.

If the balance shafts weren't on the right tooth, I assume your engine's been vibing like crazy. If your car was on the edge of CW before that, it's possible (although unlikely) that it may have pushed it to walk....

i had it towed today. they fixed it again they said the nuts on sometihng u had to use sealant or some crap cause if not it will leak oil from behind. i didnt really understand him, i was at work and had barely any service on my cell, but regardless it is fixed ( knocks on wood)
