Mitshubishi Montero. How much would it cost to fix an oil leak?

The oil keeps leaking onto the alternator and then sucking out all the battery. I've changed the alternator 4 times..since i have lifetime warranty on it.. but i really need to get this oil problem fixed. I think i need to buy some gaskets. i wanted to get an idea of how much it would cost to fix the oil leak ( labor costs)so i dont get ripped off at the mechanics..since i really dont' have one that i go to regularly. Please Help me.Mitshubishi Montero. How much would it cost to fix an oil leak?Where is the oil coming from? If it's coming from around the valve cover, it should be pretty cheap. Gaskets are probably like 20 bucks and if you are any good with tools you can fix it. If the oil leak is anywhere else, like around the oil pan or the front and rear seals, you will be looking at hundreds to fix. But from what you describe, it's coming from the valve cover gasket, unless your alternator is in a really strange spot.Mitshubishi Montero. How much would it cost to fix an oil leak?That question really cant be answeered here.. It all depends on how honest the place you take it is.. I seen it cost 450, to find out..Once you get a leak unless you know something about cars they can reall rip you off.. Well its this or that you may need this or that... Oli leaks are the Mech dreams ... Get a friend that knows cars to look first. may just save you some money.....GOOD LUCK....RobMitshubishi Montero. How much would it cost to fix an oil leak?You don't say how old the vehicle is or how many miles on the odometer. Have you checked to see if the repairs are covered under warranty.

An oil leak is an extremely uncommon problem these days. If a valve cover gasket needs replaced, the repairs could cost less than $200.00. If there is a cracked head or block, an engine rebuild might cost $3,000 to $4,000.

If you had alternator replacements done by a Mitsubishi dealer, you might want to consider trying another Mitsubishi dealer. There is the possibility the mechanic is tampering with the vehicle so he will get repeat work. That happened to me at a Dodge dealership.Mitshubishi Montero. How much would it cost to fix an oil leak?my girl..you should be able to see exactly where the oil leak is coming from...have you tried your oil cap?...it sounds like that may be your problem..in any case the local rate here in Florida for a Mitsubishi dealer is average of 25$ per hour..i would know since i own a 3000gt Mitsi..dont let them take you for a ride..if you have the time, try a bunch of places that will take a look at your problem (without charging for it ) to get an informed idea on what the problem is..then go to the dealer an tell them what to do..you will save money that way and if you go there knowing what the problem is they wont take a chance trying to rape you of your money!

Respek and good luck sugar pie!
