Question Oil leaking down from oil filter adapter?
Hello all, I recently just got an oil change and like before the oil filter has oil on the bottom of it that makes leaks down onto my driveway. I'm thinking that could be my oil filter adapter. Maybe the O-rings might need to be replaced or a new adapter installed. Help would be greatly appreciated!

Yeah there are several write ups on replacing those o-rings, if you search it or use google to look it up too.

Check around the pressure sender too. They'll cause a leak that runs down the filter. Much easier to change....
