Red Delta Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Our Journey SE is leaving oil puddles. We only found out today when my father in law called and told me that it had left oil on his pristine driveway. Our driveway is dirt and it's been raining lately so I never noticed. When the wife returned home I took a peak underneath and saw oil droplets on the cross member. The engine oil was down a quart as well. Since the dealer is closed tomorrow, I'm going to put it up on the ramps (which annoys me a little, I bought my first new car so I wouldn't have to deal with issues like this) just to take a peek and see if it's a serious problem. Then it's going to the dealer on the asap. I will keep you posted and will try and post pics of the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red Delta Posted June 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2008 I think i got the same thing going on keep us in the loop just happende to me today wondering WHAT THE Well, I was too lazy to get the car up on the ramps, so no pics. On the other hand I only had to spend an hour at the dealer to get the problem fixed. When the service manager gave me the key back he told me there was a seal blown out and thats all he could tell me about it. I stepped out for a smoke and look in the open bay door and could see the mechanic with the drive shaft removed so I could only assume that it was a trans seal or a diff seal. Thank god for warranty, it was not a problem anyways. Wasn't that big of a deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
