I recently brought a reco auto off Mal from mitsfix, had it fitted up by dads mechanic.
Now the issue I'm having is that I've noticed recently I'm getting a slight oil leak, had a look underneath its all on the auto, sourced out where its leaking from, turns out its the drain plug bolt wasn't tight. So i've tightened that back up, and about a week later its still seeping, like 2 drips in about 3 hours?
What could be the issue? could it be the drain bolt washer is no good? Would it be best just to buy a new drain plug bolt?
because the auto was reco'd so i assume the people who reco'd it would have put a new seal on the bolt, and was also told by munkeymanz that theres a valve ont he auto somewhere that maybe the issue, anyone could help me out would be much appreciated, cheers.
Cheers,
