I have a slight oil leak appearing on the garage floor when the car has sat for a day or so.....it's not an opil slick but there is always fresh drops after the car has been sitting in the garage for a day or so...
Is this something serious?

Hi there,

Every oil leak should be investigated before it develops into something more serious or just very messy, get your mechanic to check it over, hopefully it will be something minor like a faulty pressure sender or a sump plug seal or filter seal.
