oil leak

[akrockhound]

My '03 D/A is leaking oil from an engine block through-bolt located just above the forward oil pan.

Dealer says fix is new bolt with a sealing washer.

Originally they thought it was the oil pan seal - replaced it but no fix (they kept the car 3 days to do this - must have been a pain in the rear.

Anyway - anyone familiar with this leaking bolt problem and know whether there is a service bulletin for it?

My 03 had a similar problem I believe. My truck was leaking a few spots about the size of a quarter a night. It also took 2 times to fix it. The second time they replaced a gasket # 97192667. I am not exactly sure what gasket it was. When I asked for specifics on the problem as I am curious, I was given a line of bs and "dont worry, we got it fixed" I have been less than satasfied with Dmax knowlege at the 3 dealers I have gone to in the Chicagoland area.

I have never heard of a "sealing washer" I'd be intrested in finding out if that works. Not sure about you but I wouldn't like it.
