that's interesting. Is it much of a pain to fix?
Some say so, but I don't think so. Many try to do it without removing the intake manifold, and that's where it's painful. The intake manifold isn't hard to remove.
let's hope that the sensor is the source of my seepage!

Nah, the oil pressure sensor is a common seepage spot.
Right. It's on the driver's side of the engine behind the intake manifold. VERY common for them to leak oil, even if it's still reading oil pressure.

haven't had a chance to take a good look at the oil leak. Seems to be coming from the driver's side of the block. the switch activates a pump in the passenger side fender.

I loved everything about the MKV until I started doing autox and track days. It went downhill fast from there.
