    I recently got an oil leak on my 04 D12...driver side of motor maybe half way point appears to screw into side of motor and has a spiral tubing over wire that goes to it. Gotta be some kind of sensor. Any ideas? No other oil leaks...

    Probably ure oil psi sensor is leaking u have to remove the crankcase psi to get to it should 1 1/4 if still original if no 1 1/16 make sure u don't spin the plug to much because you're going to break the wires inside A lot of mechanics make this mistake and then it's a ##### to fix
