What would be the reason for oil falling down from the vehicle after walking a long route?
Answers
Explanation:
If your car has been running well and isn't showing any check engine or low oil pressure lights, but a test with the dipstick reveals that the oil level is still a bit low, you might have a small leak in the engine. If you had a big leak, you'd probably notice it -- either by a warning light coming on in the dashboard or a big puddle of oil forming under your car. Oil's viscous properties means it leaves big, obvious, black puddles under your car. But a very
small oil leak could cause the engine to lose a small amount of oil over time without any other symptoms. The oil would slowly leak out of the engine and congeal on metal components like valve covers and exhaust manifolds. You'd see no visible leak and no smoke that would otherwise tip you off to a problem.
