I have a 2004 Accord 6 speed coupe... I am getting an oil drip that appears to be coming from around the clutch inspection cover, I believe. I have not yet received my factory shop manuals to look for a scource, so any ideas? Is this a common problem?
Thanks in advance!

by clutch inspection cover are you referring to the opening between the tranny and engine that is used for setting the timing?

can you get us a picture?

No common oil leak areas that I know of on 04's...

 

Let me rephrase, No common areas aside from the normal ones like Valve cover etc....

 

Sorry, I should have included the picture. Hope this explains things better! Also my first picture post here.

Kinda looks like it's running down the engine from somewhere up top but I could be wrong.... if it is from that area and it's coming from inside I'd venture to guess that it's a rear main seal.... However, I sincerly hope I'm wrong.... Give it a bit and see if someone else has an opinion....

Yeah, my thought also... I looked around as much as I could, but did not seem to find any from up top. I will look again in the morning.
I just hate to think a rear main seal with only 50k miles...
