oil pan leak

[nato1012]

ey everyone

my car just recently started eating a whole lot of oil. when i checked underneath i saw that there was a leak coming from the connecting hose from the oil pan..i wasnt able to really get underneath yet to observe it fully but, from what i saw, absent the car being jacked, that is seemingly the source. funny thing is i havent seen a drop on my drive way. it sits there for about 10 hours before i take it out.

i have yet to check my shop manual for details. any ideas on what may have caused this leak and what the possible job cost of repair may be? thanks

Is it the hose that leads up to the turbo? I think your best bet would be to inspect the hose first and see if it needs to be replaced... it could be as simple as that.

yap that is exactly it. i called toyota and they said the part would be about $55.00. thanks. i figured that was it. when i looked i didnt see any leaks from the gasket.
