I've already fixed 5 oil leaks since I bought the car. Last week there was another spot in the driveway... I already replaced crankshaft seal, valve cover seal, camshaft position seal, oil filter, and a couple others I can't think of off the top of my head. I've tried degreasing and idling for minutes to hours to see where the oil comes from, but it only seems to leak out when I drive it and have pressure on the engine. By the time I get home to check it, there is oil everywhere making it impossible to see where it came from. It is a very small and minor leak, but its nasty and annoying. My only 2 thoughts is that it could be the oil pump or the main seal, both of which are hard to replace. I'm tired of diagnosing this engine so your thoughts are greatly appreciated.
