I need a bit of advice from the Accord experts out there. My mom's '91 Accord Lx has only 55k miles on it, and recently had her garage replace the oil pan due to a stripped drain plug thread to the tune of $400. The car had no leaking issues until now, about 1 month after the new pan was installed. I wasn't able to get under the car until we took it to the shop where the manager seemed to think it was the main seal; there was noticeable drop on the passenger side of the engine but it wasn't steady.

Anyway he wasn't totally sure it was the main so he ofered to check the oil pan seal to make sure it was ok. The car is leaving a good bit of oil in her driveway from just sitting. it seems to me that if it was the main oil seal, it wouldn't be leaking from just sitting. Any thoughts out there? Thanks!

 

Did he check that drop by inspecting your motor mount?
Are you getting an engine torque when you give the gas peddle quick burst of gas?
And what did he say about leaking seal?
$400.00 is a couple of hundred too much but that is Money in his pocket too late..
Sorry for his overcharge...
