I have an oil leak coming from somewhere and it’s not the oil pan or plug. It’s leaking onto the front bumper on the passenger side of the car and seems to be getting worse. Does anyone have any ideas where it could be coming from and how to fix it?

What kind of oil is it? It could be engine oil or transmission fluid. Does your Caravan have an oil cooler installed? It could be leaking. The oil pressure sending unit could also be a prime suspect. The oil filter could also be loose and spraying oil over to the bumper. The possibilities are endless so a visit to a good independent mechanic is warranted in this case.
