Unemployment has created time to chase oil leaks. The car is an 87,000 orig. mile car. It drips oil by the back of the left door and just in front of the left rear wheel. There is oil and grime everywhere in the area of the oil tank. I intend to R & R the tank cleaning everything. I have no experience removing the tank. I have heard I need flat end wrench from Porsche to do so. Is that correct.
All suggestions and help greatly appreciated. I can't stand the oil leak. Thanks Gene |
