oil leak

Post by mini mad sam »

Every time i go into the garage i notice my mini is leaking a small drop of oil.
When i check the dip stick it doesnt need a top up.
Any ideas how i can stop the leak??

You need to locate the leak, the most common places are the gear linkage at the gear box and the timing chain cover.
