Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

3 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

my 2004 C4S Cab with 52,000 miles on it has developed an intermittent oil leak. It is on the passenger side - 6 inches or so past the exhaust pipes. Any thoughts on likely causes? Pics included. There are 4-5 half dollar sized spots of oil on the garage floor that have developed over the past week and a half.

POST 2Original post

hows the valve cover looking on that side? can u get pics

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I can't get a good pick of the valve cover - only have my phone as a small camera in there - the leak is above that hose somewhere - if I stick my hand up and around I can feel left over oil up but I can't really pin point it - at least without lifting the car.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
