Take off your drain plug, it looks like a washer that sits at the base of the threading.

I have a leak as well, I think it might be coming from the oil pan and the oil return line... I called dealer and they wanted $26 per washer and each line uses 2 washers on each end... and $26 is MY cost as a bodyshop... Sorry to bring this thread back up but has anyone had this issue before of if they found the same washer for cheaper? =]

search the part number threads on here. go to google with the part number for the crush washer. (same number for transmission washer too) you can find them for between $1 - $5

You can also use help brand brake hose crush washers found at any local parts store. That's what I used when the dealer wanted 4 bucks a washer. I think I paid like 5 bucks and some change and the pack has like 12 in there.

It could simply be the oil filter isn't tightened properly

I found it, MR464563. Just if anyone in the future needed the part number.

And I made a mistake at the above post, dealer wanted $2.60 not $26, i heard wrong =X
