My car jumps when i'm driving after it gets warm. Only at about 35 to 45 MPH. Also it leaks oil from a rubber ?seal? near the front right tire and it is close to the pulley by the ?ac? unit. The lady I bought it from told me that the AC cluth needs to be replaced. Would this be causing a rattling noise from the engine it only does it while its idiling in drive. It will not do it if it is in park. please let me know what to do with these three problems.

Thanks

Should have it checked
suspect tranny or motor mount

as for the oil leak common for the oil pan and or the oil pan gasket to be at fault
