had my car out dialing in my afc the other day..was comming out of a 3rd gear pull when my oil warning light came on...i was about 3 miles from the house so i backed off of it and drove home at low rpms..when i got out of the car there was oil thrown all over the driverside of my car
i popped my hood and the leak appears to be comming from the oil filter assembly, it looks as though it just sprayed oil in high volume everywhere..its all over the belts, bottom of the hood, top of the engine...everywhere...
before i start ripping into this thing i thought i would ask here to see if there is anything on that assembly that is a known problem child that would cause this serious of a leak....my money is on the turbo oil line, it apears to still be screwed in tight, but i wont know for sure till i get it up in the air for a closer look...any other suggestions?
