My 2000 ford focus lEaks oil but I don't know y or where It is coming from. Everytime I drive it like 20 To 30 miles park it for a couple hours I come back too the car and there is a puddle of oil underneath it. But when I drive short distances there is no leaking. I check the oil everytime I drive it but it never seems too be low.

It could be from a few different places, oil pan, drain plug, oil filter, valve cover gasket...

I need you to get a large piece of cardboard and place it under the vehicle to determine the area of the leak. Let me know what you find.
