Oil Leak Near the Oil Pan (See Photo)

[ringtb]

I have a slight oil leak near the oil pan. Is this normal? I am driving a 2009 Diesel, 4WD, manual tranny, and I have only put 7,000! miles on the truck.

• Is this normal?
• If not, is it covered by the warranty? I bought the truck new November of last year.
• Is there a Service Bulletin about this type of oil leak?
• What else should I talk to the Ford Diesel mechanic about?

Thanks

no its not normal, but i haven seen it a few times. its a simple fix, as i had the same leak. take the truck to ford, tell them you have a leak at the front of your engine near the crank pulley, they'll get ya taken care of.

here is my truck at 4400 miles, it was i think a front cover seal and oil pump that they replaced, plus some sort of check valve
