Q: Constant oil leak.

asked by on February 24, 2017

Good morning Ben. I have an 05 Ford Escape V6 leaking oil for several weeks. I'm pretty sure it needs an oil pan gasket replacement, not sure. I would like to get it fixed as soon as possible. Is there a way of taking a look at the problem first and then proceed? If so, today will be a good day to start. My phone # is (602) 644-6036, Juan Gonzalez by the way.

My car has 188316 miles.
My car has an automatic transmission.
