Repair when you can Engine and engine cooling

If there is an engine oil leak, the engine oil pressure would drop and the engine could seize, increasing the risk of a crash.

Some of the bolts that connect the engine oil cooler and the engine oil filter to the engine in these vehicles may have been manufactured to below specification strength. As a result, the bolt may break at the oil filter attachment point and can cause an engine oil leak.

What to do: Book it in at your next service. There is no deadline and no charge.
