oil leak

Hi Mud, Just got this 2000 LC and took the engine cover off. I already wiped a bit of the grime off of the oil shaft and sides. I am getting ready to do the timing belt and water pump but I have to clean this first! I am guessing that the previous owner must have over filled the oil and had...

Hi all, I just manual swapped my 1kz surf. Test drove it up and down the street, works great but there was some oil dripping off the pan when I parked it. Wiped it off and went for a longer drive, same small amount of oil dripping off the pan. It appears to be running down the backside of the...

So I finally got the trany out this morning for my cruiser. Upon pulling I found the disc was worn well down to the rivets, but the bigger catch is that the rear head gasket is leaking oil into the bell housing. I have to get the flywheel machined and order some other parts, so I'm not in a rush...

I took my BJ42 to some cruiser specialists (L1 Automotive in Loveland) to have them diagnose an oil leak(s). Their diagnosis is that the tappet cover is leaking. I was told this is just below the valve cover. Looking at the engine repair manual, I see no mention of a tappet cover or anything...

Guys, Need some help, been chasing an oil leak. I thought I had it by replacing the following: -Oil filter housing to block gasket -Fuel pump to block gasket At low speeds (up to 50mph) I have min. oil leak, almost not noticeable. But at fwy speeds, the oil amount that leaks is all over the...

Alright well I hate to be here but here I am. Today i started noticing large amount of oil under my 97 lx450. The truck has always leaked a here and there but never this bad, seems to be spraying oil all over the axle and shocks and even after only being parked less then 20 minutes considering...

Took my 100 to a shop for a quick oil change a couple weeks ago and shortly after I started to notice oil spots underneath the vehicle. I had not had any oil leaking before this thought it was probably a cross threaded filter or something and decided to take it to a more reputable shop for them...

Is it possible to replace the steering knuckle oil seals without disassembling the steering knuckle and axle shaft?

I have a 2013 Lx 570. I have oil changed by an independent mechanic. I have 156k miles. Oil changed every 6k. What is this oil leak called? Valve cover gasket? How many labor hours?

First I bought a lot of suspension maintenance parts: motor/transmission mounts, tie rod ends, sway bar links and bushings, control arms, r/p bellows(they're torn and leaking fluid), and all the bushings for those trailing arm things in the rear. Tried to hit close to everything. Hoping for the...

so I was doing some maintenance and noticed an oil leak behind the ac condenser. I was thinking maybe the oil cooler or the cam seal( noticed oil on the underside of where the front main seal would be) Anyone got an idea ? Thanks in advance (I had already cleaned most of it up before I took...

So took my FJ40 (1982) for a cruise around Toronto. At a stop; I noticed an oil leak; it was a little more than just a few drops.... so it was concerning. Traced the oil to the 2nd spark plug. At least, that was the only wet oil stain that aligned with the oil on the floor. Checked the...

Noticed some spotting in the garage and looks like the skid plate is a little wet - any ideas?

Hey everyone, Ive been looking all around for some information on where this oil leak im dealing with could possibly be from and cant find anything so im turning to you all for some help. Recently my 1994 81 series with a 1hdt has started to develop a oil leak and it appears to be spitting oil...

Noticed some oil on the driveway tonight. Crawled under for a better look. Looks like it’s coming from somewhere around this area. Any thoughts?

I bought a 2015 GX460 a couple months ago from a Lexus dealer in PA. It had 33.6k miles. One owner and was serviced at that same dealer the whole time. So a fairly new vehicle. I decided to take it to a reputable independent shop today in my town (Michigan) just to get a post purchase...

I just rebuilt the front axles a month ago. While changing my oil I noticed some moisture/oil buildup on the bottom of the knuckle/arms (sorry don’t know what everything is called), however there is no grease leaking onto the knuckle itself. That is an old stain on the knuckle so disregard that...

Hi All, I have a 97 LX450. I had the front axles rebuilt about 2 years ago but now I have a significant leak coming from the front passenger axle. I also verified the diff breather was clear per other forum posts. Any guidance on parts order(cruiserdan?) or tips/tricks/ things to be concerned...

I suspect these two bolts may be the source of small annoying oil leak. Can someone tell me the purpose of these two bolts and if there is some type of O ring or sealant needed here? The blue oval are the two bolts.
