I don't want to go the dealership if I can help it. Too many times they don't do the job properly, and boldly tell me they fixed or did something when I know they clearly didn't do ****.

After a lot of google searching, I found some miracle products that aren't snake oil: "Bar's leak 1040" and "ATP AT-205." These 2 products do the same thing to lubricate the seals on various parts of the engine whether its te rear main seal, oil pan, etc. Pour it in with your motor oil and let it work during 5 hours of driving time. A lot of positive reviews that's saved a lot of people hundreds to thousands of dollars.

I'm gonna clean up the oiled up area with engine degreaser, get an oil change and try the bar's leak product. I'll post results in 2-4 weeks.
