Hey guys
my 2005 honda crv has a slow oil leak on the passenger side. Ive read on honda forums the vtc solenoid is a common culprit. I purchased an OEM O-ring and it still leaked. I purchased a $20 Ultra power solenoid from rock auto and it seems to be working.
I cleaned the side of the engine as best I could with rags and brake cleaner( a lot). As far has I can tell it seems like the crankshaft oil seal. There is oil on the rack and pinion, under the hood on the insulation.
The oil starts to drip a few minutes after turning off the engine. Im assuming when the engine is on thats when pully or belt tosses the oil around the engine? Could it be the oil pan gasket?
Thanks.
