Granted an oil drip isn't the most pressing mechanical problem going, but the constant drip had irritated me for years. I'd retorqued the pan bolts with no effect, and couldn't figure out where it was coming from. While changing the oil Saturday, I saw a drop of oil on the head of one of the pan bolts. Removed the bolt, placed a dab of gasket sealer on the threads, replaced the bolt. Leak fixed.

Sometimes the small fixes are the most satisfying..... :)

that has to be a good feeling that the repair was simple and easy!
