    Make sure your oil filter is on tight. Mine was only "finger tip" tight from the factory and leaking.

    I seen a couple of small oil spots on the driveway, looked underneath and seen a drop ready to let go on both the filter and oil pan.

    After crawling under and checking I seen that the oil on the pan was blow back from the filter. Grabbed the filter and was able to turn it to almost half a turn by hand, and that wasn't killer tight either, that just made it good and snug.
