Default Re: Oil Level Sensor/Lower oil Pan Question

I think I saw and responded to conversion on FB too, as I've recently concluded my o-ring at the sensor is leaking. Like you, fluid seeps minimally during operation, nothing while cold. O-ring heated is already altered or under pressure, any imperfection and you'll experience seepage, until it's cooled, and retains to its original dimensions.
