oil leak
Hey everyone. I just got my black 04 srt-4 three days ago and i really love this car. I have had alot of cars but this is by far my favorite. Well anyway I was just looking around underneath and saw that there is a little oil comming down from the I.C pipping on the driver side where the metal connects to the rubber hose. Anyone else have this and is it a big problem?
If the oil is leakin out of the intercooler piping, then I'm assuming the car doesn't have a catch can on it....my first suggestion would be to clean out the intercooler and then i would make sure the hose is pushed all the way up onto it and clamp it down....then go buy a oil catch can.... if you are unfamiliar with this, search the forums there is plenty threads to explain
tighten the clamp that holds the pipe to the intercooler. not a huge problem, but, will cause you to have a boost leak. that could be why you have a drop off in boost. oh yeah catch can is a good idea too, but not necessary.
I put a throttle body on my car, the car only has 3,000 miles. The old throttle body had nice new fresh oil all over it. The next day I installed the catch can.
