Thanks for the welcome Red Jewel RS. Just tightened up all the bolts on the oil cooler and all the oil pan bolts that I could get too. Took in for a road test for about 25 to 30 min. I'll check it tomorrow after I get out of work to see if it did the trick. Keeping my fingers crossed cause I really would rather not take it to the dealership.

Having this issue on my 2010 SS, I came home after being out of town for a week and noticed the oil spots under the car. She has been at the dealership since Monday, they have replaced the line, and the gasket. I was supposed to be picking her up today, instead I just got a call saying she is still leaking and they need more time to find out what's wrong. At least I can be thankful they are being thorough. I was told it wasn't covered under warranty. They told me they called GM though and GM said if I paid $100.00 flat fee they would eat the rest of the cost. Any of you had a similar situation with the charges?

It should be covered under warranty if your car has less than 100k! Noneof these cars are 5 years old yet.

Update: my car is fixed!! No oil anywhere after three weeks! Dry as a bone. They tried the oil cooler gasket first but that didn't work. Tightenede the oil cooler bolts too, still leaked. The second time around they replaced the oil pan gasket. Fixed.

Get it fixed while you have a warranty! |
Just got the call mine is fixed going o pick it up and see what the final diagnosis was.
Update: final verdict "internal damage in oil cooler, external leak removed and installed oil cooler and line" this is what the paperwork says. |

Mad props to my dealer, Fisher Chevrolet in Yuma, for getting me back on the road and to William at Chevrolet Customer Care for going out of his way to ensure I was taken care of and understood the warranty information :bow::thumbup:

Glad to here you got yours fixed Blackkaz04. I got mine back from the dealership thurs. they said its the oil pan gasket but I would need to bring it back in 2 weeks because its about a 5 hour job to fix. No very pleased with the back and forth but not much you can do.
