oil catcher keep the drive clean

I keep reading about people dripping oil on the driveway be it from leaks or fluid changes. My solution was to buy a mortar mixing palet from Focus diy, they are 3ft x 3ft and 4inches deep it slides between the wheels no problem and catches everything, ok if your working under there you may have to move it around a little but it catches the oil or water that runs down cross members and other obsticles. and if you have a leak your not going to fix just yet just slide it under and protect the drive or garage floor. I think it cost me about £8. good luck. Beni

Reckon if your leaks are that bad you need to fix em

it dont need to be a bad leak to make a mess of a nice drive way, and if your landy is completely free of leaks youve got the only one.

Mine isn't free of leaks but it doesn't leave pools on the floor either. If I was bothered about the odd spot on the drive I would have bought a toyota

I think you missed the point, I bought this drain tray to put under the car whilst i was working on it, but now that I have it I can use it for other things like catching the odd drip.

plenty of drips on here - good luck.....

thats a bit harsh from a man o the cloth
