There is a oil leak coming out of the crank pulley, did quick research found out I wasn't the only one. There was a oil ring around the pulley where it goes into the engine and it needs to be a free fix or recall I don't care but why would I want to keep a car that has this problem. I also bought a new pulley for the car and checked on it 6 months later and the ring was there also.
