near miss oil leak

[jpliddy]

hi all
came out this morning to a small pool of oil on the drive . on inspection i thought it was the sump gasket as i had some weeping a year ago on the front pan . this time oil was dripping just under the coolant drain of tap , on close inspection oil was dripping from the oil pressure sensor switch . i have never taken notice of this so a few phone calls and my local euro car parts . had one in £4.55. i was well happy been told these fail and leak slowly mine was leaking badly through the spade connection so good job i was not on the motorway

Good catch! It always pays off to give a little glance under the car before you go (thats how I caught my coolant leak).
