Very very lucky ....the engine oil light turn ON ,Timing Belt !

Recently I had oil change to my Hyundai Elantra in May 2019, https://bit.ly/2XlRKwC. I clocked 189,246 km. About a week later, my wife was driving home and she saw the engine oil light turn ON , she was about 2km away from home... I told her to continue driving since the  engine acting as normal with any abnormal noise or smoke.

As I reach home after work, I immediately check..found below the sump tank was wet and extending to the rear. The dip stick was totally dry. The oil filter was wet..I suspect the gasket may have broken...so when ahead with changing the oil filter and make sure I wasn't over tighten. Top up with X-1R again and give it a start.

Then, I give the engine a start...it surprise me....there was an oil leak...came from the oil seal near the crankshaft..it was a strong leak..at any moment it can empty the whole engine oil sump tank. At that moment , the car just clock 189,686km.

I had the car tow away the next day to Ah Yau for check up. In my heart...lucky I top up with X-1R,never expected this incident to happened.

AhYau confirm the timing belt oil seal leak..oh dear! The timing belt was replace last year Feb https://bit.ly/2HQoyZv, it just clocked over 20,000km.

Change to another set of timing belt kit (90,000) recommended by Ah Yau, not require to drained out the engine oil.The alternator and aircond belt was also replace. Total costing RM660...poor me.
