Hello, I have a ‘18 Odyssey with 21,200 miles, muzzled and does not use/burn any oil. I used TGMO 0w20 since I dumped the FF at 6,000 miles.
The oil was changed at 6,000 miles and 14,000 miles respectively. However, during oil change at 14,000 miles, I noticed some gunk that looks like grease residue that its not runny, but tacky(no drips on the floor and no puddle on the belly housing). Thought it was just road grime, I cleaned it thoroughly with brake cleaner and waited 3,000miles to inspect the same area, but found nothing.
Fast forward, the car now has 21,200 miles and I inspected the area again. Lo and behold, I found a slight trace of seepage but it's not as bad since discovery.
Could it be a slow oil leak or an assembly lube getting melted with the engine's heat cycles? (Still, no drips, no puddles and its tacky).
