Ford Fiesta: What could be leaking oil on the opposite side to the exhaust next to the rear left tyre?
There's a huge oil leak coming from my 01 fiesta on the opposite side to the exhaust, it's really badly rusted, does anyone know what part of the car this is? Or send me a link to a webpage that will tell me?
If you were to post a pic of leak section? Better answers would follow,
Other side of exhaust on engine is intake section. But oil can leak in one area and be blown or carried by gravity to another.
We need to clean ara first then start checking for leaks.
There's no "oil" at the rear of a Fiesta - only fuel.
The fuel filler is usually on the opposite side of the car to the exhaust tailpipe, so I suspect that you have a leak from the fuel filler neck (the pipe that leads from the fuel filler cap to the fuel tank).
If it is a petrol car, then this is a fire risk. If it is a diesel car, then you are spilling a greasy liquid right by one of your tyres, so risking a loss of control of the car when cornering. Either way you should stop driving the car (and preferably have the fuel tank drained) until you get it repaired.
- Which exhaust/exhaust system would work best for my car? I own a 1970 Ford Torino (Brougham) with a 351 Cleveland engine running on stock exhaust. I want to upgrade the exhaust (I'm thinking Flowmaster) but like, does the whole exhaust system need to be done, or like half? I need your help making my baby roar lol. Please give me your best suggestions and approximate cost.
- My buddy has a 99 Ford Ranger XLT 4x4 that is leaking oil from rear passenger wheel. Any ideas on why? The brake cover is not pushed all the way against the hub. There's a half inch gap between them. Don't know if that has anything to do with it. So it has nothing to do with the wheel bearing?
- If you're parked waiting for a friend in a gd area in Aussie+ a 60 year old in a Porsche parks opposite u, exits his car stepping toward? You a metre and scowling at u without breaking his gaze, what's his problem? I looked away first stupidly as I'm in my car and should not have let him do that, but when he walked off he did another death stare at me for 5 metres… I feel violated by this agro guy… Why does he think he owns the street? would you have said " what's up?" Or what are you staring at so much? I'm 25 in a new Ford.
