Oil Leak



  Oyster Card


Hi guys, I know this is sort of searching for a needle in a haystack but my Clios got an oil leak. It seems to be coming from the back of the engine somewhere.
If I look behind the engine lump behind the airfilter everythign is soaked in oil including the N/S wishbone.

Anyone want to take a guess as to where it could be coming from, it doesnt actually leak onto the ground it sort of hugs the bottom of the car and sticks to it.
 


cv joint woudl be my guess, gets flung up onpot everythign when teh car is moving, if its engine oil etc it will be dripping on to the road
 
  172 cup'd extreme


check all the rubber inner and outer joints prob dont forget cv grease is black like oil common mistake.
most of the time is easier to get a recon drive shaft than mess about changing cv boots
