RE: 2013 isx15 oil leak behind ecm You probably mean between the front cover and the head? Just so happens the ECM is there. You're gonna need to post a picture if you want to get a decent diagnosis.Also some engine info like model,mileage,etc. | |||

RE: 2013 isx15 oil leak behind ecm Here are a couple of pics as requested. As you can see the leak comes from behind the ecm. I don't know if there's a hose or gasket behind that could cause this. Thanks in advance. | |||

RE: 2013 isx15 oil leak behind ecm I kinda have the same thing, just seen it this morning .......cleaned everything off and will watch. On mine I can see two places where it could be coming from and neither are in general area of oil deposit so I am thinking the fan is blowing it back there? I have a small leak on power steering unit (while working near it I turned the mickey mouse oem clamp because it was stabbing me everytime I reached in there and obviously it does not like its new position). The other is front cover over air compressor drive has a small leak (I had pulled the cover and it has a small bend in sealing edge ...didn't want to replace so I straightened in hopes it would seal ....no luck I guess) So just sayin' it may be coming from somewhere else and fan is depositing it there, clean everything and keep looking. | |||

Also if it was leaking from the front (which I do have a leak) wouldn't it be dirtying around the fuel filter as well? Thanks | |||

I'm not sure if its common for those to leak?? But I suppose anything could leak. Fuel of course though, not oil. | |||
