Mark farmer 0 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 Hi I'm new to lotus forum I have a lotus elise s2 k series standard 2001. I was wandering if the car has a oil cooler fitted up front as I have noticed a few drops of oil on the passenger side I'm not sure if it's my car or another kind regards mark farmer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lithopsian 7 Posted April 23 Share Posted April 23 A standard K-series S2 doesn't have an oil cooler. Some people have fitted them, although not usually up front. I think the 111S had an oil cooler as standard. Are you sure it is engine oil? Could it be brake fluid? Damper fluid? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MrWill 12 Posted April 24 Share Posted April 24 (edited) Hello and welcome As above: It didn't have an oil cooler and it would be located there if it did. Have you got any pictures - both of the leak and the car ? Your usual suspects are: a) brake fluid b) damper fluid c) coolant d) washer fluid (?) e) Another car with a oil leak parks in the same spot as you. Good luck MrWill Edited April 24 by MrWill Edited for completeness Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Broadside 7 Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Lol, welcome to the world of K series paranoia, mines usually more to do with constant smell of coolant even though I know its all fine! 😂 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
