I was rear ended 2 months ago on the freeway ( 2006 FX35). The insurance fixed it up and I just noticed some dry leak residue on the subframe differential bushing (see pic).
There is no fresh leak that is showing. Does this mean that all the oil already leaked? I don't notice any problem with the car, i just happened to see it.
Any potential risk if i keep it like that without fixing?
I did some research and it seems i need to change the whole crossmember for ~ $600 parts + another ~ $600 labor.
Is this a common problem or could it be from the accident?
Thanks a lot.
