Anyone with ccv mod....

nickg3130 · Mar 7, 2012

Does your truck leak oil right behind the oil pan? I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the ccv mod but it never leaked before that. Truck only has 20,000 miles on it so I'm curious what it could be. Here's a crappy cell phone pic it's hard to get room to take one.

Look in the valley and make sure the oil isn't coming from up top. More likely is the fuel injection pump cover

I will definitely check after work.

mine leaks there a little they told me it's the bed pan and I don't have the ccv mod yet

Mine leaks there also but it did it before the ccv mod.

You guys feel around down there? I put my hand up by the pan and there was some oil there too. I just don't want anything major to be wrong that's it. It probably isnt from the ccv mod either I was just curious.

Mine weeps in the same area. It started after the CCV mod. I can run my fingers along the top of the oil pan by the block on the passenger side and it has oil there also. Its never enough to drip on the ground. I just cant see where it is weeping from.

You guys think it's anything big or just don't worry about it?

Mine doesn't leak bad enough to drip it's just always wet. I'm not sure if it's the bedplate or the rear main, either way I'm not gonna worry about it for the time being.

131,xxx. It's been like that for awhile.

nickg3130 · Mar 7, 2012

I don't even have 20,000 yet haha. We'll see if worse comes to worse ill bring it to the dealer.

Mine has had that same issue since day one. They replaced the rear main when my motor was out of the truck, but it still has the same issue. Never really drips, but is always damp. I wipe it clean at each oil change. I assume its bedplate. Try to follow the leak. Pull the inspection cover in the bell housing and see if its wet inside. Sometimes the oil dip stick leaks. Could be a few things from the top of the motor.

mine is going in for same issue. they said its the bed plate.

could be ccv pressure pushing on the rear main.

I was thinking that. Should I try to bring it to the dealer and get it checked out or just wipe the oil down and forget about it

Don't take it to the dealer with the CCV the way you have it now

If it hasnt started using oil or leaving a trail on the ground I wouldnt worry. Try taking a socket and rachet and just snug up the oil pan bolts and spray with brake clean and see what it does. I need to do mine but its not on the ground yet
