Default Weird Oil Leak...

Just wondering if anyone else has encountered this?

I never noticed any oil stains on my driveway and then this morning I woke up with about a softball sized oil stain. From one night

I crawled underneath it and cant really locate the source. Has this happened to anyone? I have a 2007 Jeep JK 4 Dr. I took it to the dealer this morning, SO we'll see...

Look at the inside of your front tires. I am betting it is a leaking axle seal.

Location of the puddle? underneath the middle of the Jeep or at one specific area?

You're sure it's engine oil and not any other gear oil or fluid?

Interesting.. Hope you get a solution or at very least a diagnosis.
