Re: OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAK
replace filter housing. No repair to that. Surely they can do that?

Re: OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAK
Where exactly does it leak? Do you have a picture?
Cant think that the housing is cracked, probably just needs a gasket somewhere...

Re: OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAK
What is that filter made of to cost 15k?
Where exactly does it leak, a pic or 2 would help.
