    So yesterday I saw one weird oil leak on my WRX. There's motor oil dripping/leaking from behind my driver side rear wheel (it's dripping off starting off the rear bumper where mudflaps would bolt up). I usually keep a extra Quart of oil where jack used to be so I thought the bottle probably leaked. Pulled the bottle out and no leaks on it (it was dry outside). I wiped off the oil on the floor and bumper, took the car for a spin, everything seemed fine, came back home and parked the car. This morning it's back, oil leaking from same location. :confused:

    This is clean oil, Motor oil. What in the world could be back there?

    Found it, turned out my last bottle fell in there and just now started leaking. Man this shit had me scratching my head like no other. I was like my car is taking a oil piss every night at the wrong end. Talk about self pwnage.
