Hi folks,

Had the car back from the dealer a couple of weeks from the 30k service. Popped the bonnet to fill the washer bottle and noticed I could see the floor in between the front of the motor and the front crossmember. Never seen the gap before, so looking online looks like the panel that gets taken off to access the sump and oil filter under the car hasn’t been replaced....wtf?
Also, noticed an oil leak at the joint between engine and cvt and rust on the welds on the subframe.....

Could anyone pls confirm that the panel should be there before I make a fools a55 of myself at the dealer.

Thanks,

Carl
 
Carl The black under tray should be there. Usually held in with a few plastic push type clips. In worst case can be zip tied in.
Feel free to drop by a wrecking yard , you should find a lancer on its side and grab a photo to take back to the mechanic
Google images may even save you the trip to the wrecker
 
On at least the early CJs, that access panel was actually bolted in (with the beloved Jap 10mm hex head from memory).
