That Old Leaky Camry V6


ADVANTAGE

Recommended Posts

Hi I have a feeling that this has been gone over before but I cant find the answer I am Looking for, My well cared for 2002 Camry Advantage has got a little oil leak, looking under the car from the slightly jacked up front, I can see a transverse exhaust bracket on a braided section of pipe and it is slightly wet with oil, I get one drip per day on my floor but the bracket looks wet,

I am guessing that the position where this oil is coming out is an indication of where it is leaking from?? I will be going into a Mobility scooter in a couple of years so if this is not a danger or going to blow my motor up I would just as soon leave it til its time to part, There is no significant loss of oil between changes. any advice is appreciated ( I love spell check)

Chances are pretty good that the leak is coming from the Rocker Cover Gasket on the rear cylinder bank( Fairly common for these motors) and is more of a messy nuisance than an impending engine failure. Therefore if I were in your position I would just leave it. Enjoy yor mobility scooter.
