JamesEmbling Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I'm not an expert with the mk7s but the smell or colour of the leak can usually be an indicator of what's leaking? Sorry realised you said oil leak.. What side is the oil filter located? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamer Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 That's on the left hand side, the oil filter is on the right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesEmbling Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 Hmm was gonna say it couldn't have been leaking around the seals, what about sump plug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screamer Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 This is on the top of the block, at the left side, my brother has mentioned the throttle body, just wanted to know if it was that before I think about getting one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesEmbling Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 I see, if its only a small leak I wouldn't have thought its an emergency to get it done, I'd just say to keep an eye on oil levels maybe to ensure you don't run it dry and get it looked at when its convenient for you 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben'77 Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hello, I'm new on here. Have not had my fiesta flame 1.4 long (mk 6) and I've noticed a leak under the front end on the left hand side, coming from a big metal box bit near the front wheel, I can see the oil filter to the right of the leaking part- how serious does it sound as only had the car a month!!
