2 annoying issues(battary draw and oil)
 
Hey guys/girls,

i have searched for these but nothing came up with the exact issues like mine.

Problem # 1 :
- car draws battery power while off. Most of the time it happens when it rains outside or i go through a car wash.
If I let my car sit long enough it won't turn on without a boost.


it's not the battery I tried two already , does the same thing and no lights are staying on in the car either.


Problem # 2 :

I have oil coming out the oil filler and sometimes i find a little under the cover on top of the engine.
I have no smoke or oil coming out of my dip-stick pipe(if that's the right name for it) I heard it could be the PCV valve but I don't have those symptoms.



Any idea?

thanks much

Problem #1 could be anything. There is a machine that they can plug in to determine the amount of draw, and then you start disabling circuits until you find the circuit drawing the power.

Problem #2 could be something as simple as the gasket on the filler cover having failed.
