Hi all, today I drove my lx470 into town to run errands and noticed the smell of burning oil a couple times when I stopped. When I got out of the car I noticed it dripping what I am pretty sure is oil from the drivers side. Its all over the a arm and surrounding area. When I got this rig not too long ago I noticed it appeared to have been leaking around there at one point because there was signs of oil or something else. I finally got a chance to take it to the car wash and sprayed it all down to clean it up and now its dirtier than it was. It seems to be leaking pretty good from wherever its leaking from. I will do an oil change tomorrow and check level, etc but I am putting it out of commission until I get it fixed.
I am going to see if I can find out where its coming from tomorrow but wanted to see if anyone has anything in particular to look at there. I tried taking a peak today but there is alot of stuff in the way when looking from underneath and I couldn't pinpoint it. I appreciate any help. Never had a vehicle leak this bad before, never thought my Lexus would! Has me worried!
