      Unknown sensor leaking oil ‘09 aveo LT

      Hi, I am new to this forum so please be gentle.

      So a little while ago I took this car off the hands of a family member, I fixed the issue of the coolant temp sensor and temp gauge not working already (can provide info on how I diagnosed and fixed that if anyone remould like), but now I am left with quite the oil leak. It appears to be coming from a sensor to the left of the exhaust manifold toward the serpentine belt. Contacting my local gm dealers and some other shops has been unsuccessful so far and no other forums or videos have covered what sensor that is. If anyone has an idea or could give some guidance on how to proceed, it would be greatly appreciated

      Thank you very much

      Can you post a picture of the sensor in question?

      I’m not sure how to upload a photo, I will see if I can figure out how on my phone or my have to do it on my desktop. I don’t have very easy access to the car at the moment so I don’t have any good pictures of it on my car. I drew a small illustration to show roughly where it’s located but I do have some clips on my phone I could probably screenshot and upload.

      I’ll upload the pics when I can, but if you know how to do it on iPhone’s safari browser, I’d love some advice

      My phone won’t let me upload the images, just says that I don’t have permission to do so when I try to use desktop mode. So I uploaded the image to a google drive account. Please let me know if that link works to view it; if so I’ll upload more that way

      Link doesn’t work. It’s asking me to sign in (to I’m thinking your account).

      Some forums I’m on require 10 posts before you’re allowed to post a picture, I checked the rules but couldn’t find any requirement. Just for giggles post 7 more short posts and see if you are now allowed

      Hopefully this link will work as I changed some thing on my google drive. Since the pics are on my phone and it doesn't have a working charger port, I will have to play around to convert the images to an accepted file type to upload them directly to the forum.

      more pics will hopefully be up today, thank you
