Small oil leak...
I noticed a small puddle of oil in my garage today... Not a big puddle, but maybe 2 inches in diameter... Haven't had one before in the garage, but today I checked a car port spot I park at and there may be a few spots there,
I couldnt fully inspect but I think its coming frrom somewhere above the oil drain plug. Couldnt get under there to look what was going on. Any preliminary ideas?
And is this the end of the world or not a big deal...

RE: Small oil leak...
Make sure the oil drain plug is tight! Also, this is common advice I give to my wife: Don't park all the way up until the tires hit the cement blocks on the floor at parking lots. All this does is make your oil pan hit it and it gets dented and often it'll make the oil pan and rod bearing hit each other causing serious problems under the hood. Also, the oil pan is held up by several bolts that believe it or not they can brake! Hit the oil pan hard enough on something, and you'll have to tap a new hole to get the oil pan to seal again.
