My car leaks oil. My options are to fix each leak or replace the engine. What should I do?
My car leaks from four or five different places. Three gaskets and a camshaft need to be replaced and I think there may be another leak! The oil drips very slowly though. Its a Chrysler Cirrus, ‘97 with 150,000 on it and it runs great. The body is still in great shape too, only a couple of rust spots. I wanted to give this car to my mom. Is it worth the trouble fixing it?
I got quoted for repairs for three leaks -it will cost over $400 from the non-certified mechanic!
As long as it’s not the rear main engine seal. (very labor intensive to get to), the other gaskets should be relatively inexpensive to replace.
Even if you can cut the number of leaks in half, as long as you make sure there is enough oil in the engine, it should be fine to drive.
