Expert Oil Leak Diagnostic Services in San Diego

Identifying and fixing oil leaks promptly is crucial for maintaining your vehicle’s health and performance. At Auto Tech Specialists, we provide comprehensive oil leak diagnostic services to pinpoint and resolve oil leaks efficiently.

Understanding Oil Leaks

There are several systems in a vehicle that can leak oil, each fluid typically having a distinct color which helps in identifying the leaking system:

• Engine Oil: Brown or black, sometimes amber if it’s new.
• Power Steering Fluid: Clear, brown, green, or red.
• Automatic Transmission Fluid: Reddish in color.
• Engine Coolant: Green, red, orange, or clear with a watery consistency.

How Oil Leaks Behave

Oil leaks generally move in a downward and rearward direction. This means that oil leaking under the rear of the engine may have originated at the upper front engine area. Due to this, identifying the exact source can be challenging, especially as engines get dirty over time.

Our Diagnostic Process

At Auto Tech Specialists, we use advanced methods to locate oil leaks accurately:

• Fluorescent Dye: We add a fluorescent dye to the oil, drive the vehicle, and then use a special light to illuminate the leaking dye, making it easier to find the leak source.
• Thorough Inspection: Our skilled technicians conduct a detailed inspection to trace the leak back to its origin.
• Clear Communication: We keep you informed about our findings and recommend the best course of action to fix the leak.
