[QUOTE="jarance, post: 449378, member: 21"] O to 40W is too thin in my opinion. 5 to 40W would be more suitable. It is very hard to say where the oil is leaking from without actually seeing the car. As perry mentioned, better to send to a reputable workshop and jack the car for an inspection. Chances is that you might not be able to confirm the source due to many oil stain. it would be advisable to clean the bottom part of the engine to clear all the oil stain. After cleaning, then drive a few hours and check for new stain. if there is, the mechanic will advise you what need to be done. I think you can kiss your raya celebration for this year. :sleep: [/QUOTE]
