Hi guys so I just picked up my 2019 summit X and noticed I’m leaking oil onto my skid plate. It looks like it’s coming from around where the A arms mount them going down towards the rear till it pools up then leaks onto the floor. It’s very very black but don’t know where it’s coming from or what would cause it. The motor compartment looks perfect as far as I can see.

Black stuff like that must be coming out of your pipe. Donut between pipe and y pipe might not be sealed

Same thing happens every year and the same question gets asked every year. Factory puts some extra oil in the motor initially for assembly and break in. It pools in the y-pipe and drips out the joint. It's not a ongoing leak.
