Is oil clean, no coolant mixing? Also, are you sure the leak isn't external? All that carpeted underbody paneling might hide even moderate spills.

How likely is it that a stationary parked car would leak into the combustion chamber or the turbine? Reason im asking is where Im from the dealership is notorious for exaggerating minor issues and charging as if its a major one. I want tk bring it in and be as prepared as possible.
