ok i got 2 ?'s for you folks i put a piece of card board under my car last night cause i suspect a lil oil leak it sat for 12 hours and this moring there was a dime size drop any thing i should worry about u think and i wonder were its coming from

? 2 anybody know a price range or problem my drive window has a new motor but towards the top it gets stuck (like the front piece of the glass gets stuck a lil ) and when i assit it a lil it goes up fine with a lil bit of help looked in it everything appears fine

If its the size of a dime that should mean only a few drops which isn't that bad for a 12 hour time span. I would be concerned [because im kind of meticulous when it comes to keeping my car in working order] but i wouldn't be panicked. Just periodically check your oil level and make sure you aren't low.

I know you said oil and i am assuming you mean engine oil, would i be correct in my assumption? We could help better if we were sure what kind of fluid it is and [more importantly] where its coming from.

And i can't help you with the window problem i am not experienced in that area sorry.

If and when you do this use a small bead of RTV along the pan gasket also. When replacing mine when the engine was out I didnt use rtv and now a have oil seepage also...And yes all bolts were torqed down to the proper ratings.

The oil pan is going to be one of the problematic things to replace. I have never tried it myself, but my understanding is that you have to loosen or lower the cradle/subframe some to get it out. There are a few on here that have replaced the gasket before, perhaps they will step in and let you know all the details.
