I get that! But some folks might not have the cash for it. Isn’t sealant worth trying before shelling out big bucks?
That’s a fair point! If sealants can extend the life of your oil pan, why not? Just be realistic about how long they can last.
I’ve tried a few, but they only worked temporarily. Maybe there’s an ideal scenario for using them that I missed!

Was it the same brand every time or did you switch? Could that be part of the issue?
I don’t think it’s just the brand. It might also depend on how severe the leak is. Not all sealants handle heavy leaks well.
So true! It’s like trying to put a bandage on a broken leg. If the leak is massive, good luck with a sealant!

Haha, exactly! Maybe we should just put a warning label on the tube: ‘For light drips only!’
I’ve heard some horror stories about DIY sealant jobs leading to bigger headaches, though. Proper prep is key!
Totally! It’s crucial to follow the instructions. Sealant can be a quick fix; just handle it with care!
