Im Leeking Oil!! Heelllppp

[ThetC]

where should I check or what shold i do, i have not checked under the car yet because there is a blizzard out right now here in new england so its pretty cold. but it is freekin me out, does anybody got any advice, i do have the extended warranty with only an intake and the trd exhaust, would they look at it and fix it for free

[Mengsta]

This reply might be a lil late, but having those mods probably would void your warranty. I say you reinstall the stock intake and exhaust then bring it back to the shop. Plus what year scion your have?

[ThetC]

well first, my intake has nothing to do with the oil, and my exhaust is TRD which the factory put on, ummmmmm... i actually changed out the FRAM oil filter and replaced it with a K&N performance filter, and as of now it stopped but we'll see, thanks for the reply though

Intake and exhaust will not void your warranty or emissions. A loose oil filter could be your problem.

they will probably see the K&N filter and tell you that since the oil has been changed elsewhere, they wont be able to fix it for free, put a factory toyota filter, or like Navylife said, its probably a loose filter, ur car is too young to break down!!! lololol

[Mengsta]

Well itz just a warning. Because the *******s at my stevens creek dealer kept bsing me telling me i cant do my own work to it. Though a loose oil filter could be itjust make sure u tighten that.

[navylife59]

That is it, just BS... The Dealer is full of it.

[ThetC]

well I was trying to tighten it to where it wouldnt go any farther, and it kept going like it was stripped or something, should I go back to the dealership and try to take care of this

[chicotunner07]

ummm, YEAH!!! like right away man!!! run now!!!, hahahaha, that does sound like a big problem, try another filter to check if it really is striped, or maybe its the wrong size filter!!

[navylife59]

The filter should strip out before the threaded nipple on the motor.
