17 RTR engine oil leaking

QATARSUB · Mar 19, 2018

Well juss what took the truck to make installation and as soon they left the truck up taking the skid plate down they saw engine oil leaking from panel don’t know if it’s the oil drain plug or the panel it self, and the truck was in dealer last month to change oil for second service don’t know what’s the mistake they have done to coz that issue.

Any idea or suggestions? Any after market parts that can solve the issue permanently?

Hard to tell from the pictures. The plastic drain plug is easy to damage if you don't know what you are doing.

And it seems many Raptors (mine included) came from the factory with oil pan issues. I'd ask them to check both the drain plug and the pan.

There’s a regular eco 3.5TT aluminum pan, but it’s apparently different from the Rap. You mentioned service and this vehicle is notoriously messy particularly if they didn’t pull the skids fully.

Clean that thing off with a religious fervor, and some solvent, preferably one that doesn’t leave an oily residue. Next, hit it with something like baby powder, talcum powder or blue marking powder.

drive around for a while. Pull skids and report back.

The plastic drain plug is doing it.

They’re garbagio.

I bought a few of them and will replaced with every change. They only cost like 3 bucks.

Disposable. The o-ring goes awol after an oil change.
