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.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

First few times I drove the car after storing it for the winter there was an oil leak after I went on long drives. A few drops of oil was on the garage floor. So, I made an appointment with the dealer but now, it's not leaking anymore. No fresh drops of oil on the garage floor. Ever hear of an oil leak just disappearing? Seems strange to me...

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

John, I drove 70 miles from NH to Danvers for Ira to check the leak and they never got to my car that day. Leak hasn't been there for a few weeks now so maybe it'll disappear from your car also! Now do I want to drive down to MA again for them to tell me we don't see a leak?

POST 4Original post

I am experiencing the same thing with my '02 C2. There has been a small amount of oil leaking from the left side of the engine. Seems hard to believe that you can have an intermittant oil leak, but that is what I have. I have not taken it to the dealer because it does not leak on a consistant basis. I only have 1000 miles on the car, so I'm waiting to see what happens as I put some miles on it.
