Doesn't it seem odd to you, that two mechanics can't seem to get
involved enough to try and at least sound like they know the business
their in?
You didn't say what leaks,where it is,how,when,etc
Did they say the leak is fixable?
The EGR Valve,hoses & such, would be a good place to start
Why didn't they do that?
All this talk & no attempt to resolve a thing
We get thousands of people a week on this site alone,
what is going on with these shops,any idea?
Check it out yourself easily by looking for oil leak while engine idling but make sure keep oil level at full level with engine idling few minutes or less depend on how much oil pouring leaking out look under vechicle where oil filter and oil pressure sending unit is thats where oil leak will leak out large amounts.if all is good if you have slow oil leaking a small or mid size leak front timing cover seal leaking or rear main oil seal.the oil pan gasket and valve covers leak oil also.

Oh I agree 100%, that is the frustrating part, finding a trust worthy tech. It was 5-6 small 50cent size leaks, after cleaning engine and carriage, now cantelope size in front area of engine. cannot pin point where it is originating. the ck engine light comes on periodically, it reads 02sensor. mech said oil gets on sensor and trips it. he resets, and its good for a few weeks. the vehicle is in vg cond, does not burn oil, or any other major issues.
The oxygen sensor is inside the exhaust pipe,so much for oil getting on it What he does is clear all data needed to diagnose what codes your have,not reset anything Change the 2 front or upstream O2 Sensors & the MIL Lamp will go out on it's own & try to resolve the oil leaks at a different shop obviously
what abt the theory re; breather screen clogged, causing oil leak, or adding to it?
