oil leak by oil filter

[stheodore10]

so around 3 months ago i had a leak from the oil filter that i did a bang up job on repairing since i was in seaside, very far from home. i sprung another leak today and i assumed it was the oil filter until i changed it and chANGED the oil and i thought i was done. i saw no leaks. then i turned on the car and ran it and it looked like it was ocming from above or at the oil filter. i wanted to see if anyone could help out before i bring it to the shop. maybe related: ive had a boost leak and/or something wrong with the turbo, or exhaust as it sounds a little weird when i rev it.

the leak only happens when i turn on the car. its a steady leak, not too big, but significant

could be a leak, at a gasket.

it could be coming from your oil sensor in the back of the block or oil line if your saying its above the oil filter. you need to get under your car with a flashlight and check it out.

There is a gasket in between the oil filter housing and the oil cooler, if it is bad, it will lleak but not much, you have to ake off the oil filter and insert a sucket to remove the bolt, once you remove it, it will come apart , yo will see a gasket in between that looks identical as the oil fier gasket.
I had the same problem and I replaced it with an old oil filter gasket that I used to have.
