Cool Oil leak Etc.

Bought a new 2005 srt6 last month. I noticed an oil spot under the engine on more than one occasion, yep it's oil. Somewhere online I remember someone mentioned that the oil check sensor didn't seat right and that was the cause. Does this sound familiar to any of you. Also how do you access the onboard diagnostics. I just found the codes on the forum. I read the owners manual and don't remeber it mentioning the process. I need a service manual and will get one soon. And while I'm at it an intermittant air condioner problem has arisen. Any insight? Thanks!

My crankshaft front main seal is leaking and im in the process of replacing it. See if theres oil under your pulley. I doubt thats your case but its free to check.

Thanks Guys, that's very useful stuff. I have to take a friend over today to pick up his new 650 horse Mustang. Do you think he's trying to upstage me LOL.

I too have leaks on both sides of the valve covers. Very minor, just look oily. I clean them almost every month. Do you think they will replace for such a minor issue?

Yes, just make sure you don't clean them so they know where the problem is and take them in.. shouldn't be a problem.
