Hi guys, so today I finally got around to replacing my cracked fog lamp and took the front bumper off to do so. Whilst I was under the car I noticed this (see attached pic). I don't know what it is or if it is a problem but it doesn't look good.

It is in a gap in the underside tray, just behind the front bumper and in-front of the driver-side front wheel - which you can see in the bottom left of the photo. There is some exposed engine part which appears to have oil seeping out of it??

Thank you once again for any advice!

PS sorry that everything looks pink in the picture, I was lying on a red blanket that was reflecting up at the car hah

Intercooler pipe seal

Oh I see it now, its a big pipe coming out of the bottom of the intercooler? Is changing the seal a difficult thing to do?

Cheers

Changing the seal is easy... pop end out of SMIC.. pull off old seal ring.... pop on new seal ring, push pipe back home..

Thing is.. it's probably more likely that it's time to clean out your pipe work.. Oil does naturally gather in the bottom off the IC, so changing the seal won't necessarily stop it for long.

Thank you, I will give that a try. Cleaning out all the pipe work sounds expensive
