Hi just purchased a C4 GP today and noticed spots of oil on my driveway already, just my luck eh?! Looking to investigate further in the morning but wondered if anyone could advise where I should be looking. I’ve put 2 images in the drop box folder here

Doesn’t appear to be from the sump but I’m no mechanic and haven’t got a clue what the area is that is showing a leak as pictures from under the vehicle.

I have a 6 month warranty but could do without the hassle. Hopefully it’ll be covered and I can get it sorted. If I can do something myself then even better.

Have a look under the bonnet as the plastic engine tray may well divert any liquids away from the actual area.

Having said that, if you've been able to get photos then is there a plastic tray there?!

A crack in the sump apparently, diagnosed today and being repaired now by a local garage
