So i noticed the leaks of oil and decided to take it in thinking i would replace an oil seal or so. Then i was told that i should give the car back or get a new engine which for this car would be around $4,000 plus install. They said the leaks were coming from the ALL the seals, gaskets, dipstick tube, and oil pan. They said if i kept the oil at sufficient levels it would still run, but what I want to know is that safe, or is the car going to start dying if i drive it with severe oil leaks?
