Over the past couple of months we've noticed that out Rover 200 (1999) has been losing a small amount of oil (just a tiny bit (literally a few droplets) on the floor every day directly under the engine area. On closer inspection, it seems that this oil seems to be leaking from the front side of the engine around the nuts and bolts (excuse my non technical terms, haven't a clue what else to call them!) on the far left. In this area there is slight wetness and a crusty black residue and if you look you can see where this is dribbling down and leaving the slight puddle on the floor. The car's going in for it's MOT in friday and I'm going to ask them to look at it then, but was just wondering if anybody had any ideas as to what might be wrong, and a very rough idea of how much it's going to cost me? Thanks, Mel.
