My car's been parked in the garage for about a week, and there's a fresh oil spot underneath it, so I guess it drips even w/o the motor running. Granted it's not much since I still had about the same amount as after i had the oil changed. the spot's behind the second sump plug, and seems to be collecting on the sway bar before it hits the ground. Also, my coolant goes down a lot, and quickstyle. I don't know if its being burned or what. I can't really tell if I'm getting the coolant/oil milkshake with just my dipstick, but the oil seems to be in okay shape, I guess i'll check it when i do the next oil change?
Any advice for common oil leaks in that area though? And any on coolant?
Thanks

have you replaced the washer on the rear drain plug?
as far as the coolant, check for leaks. check everywhere (even in the interior under the dash). you can also look into the radiator, oil floats on water, you could see some with the coolant. i did when my last motor milkshaked.
