I got 03 coupe and had a 58K on it.. the problem is everytime a start my engine i get a leak under the engine.. I went two different body shop the first one they change my oil filter pressure, but the leak stop for only 3 days.. Then i went to the other one they said my car is fine they don't see any leak.. so i noticed that I only get a leak when i start my engine....(and i check the oil stick before i start the car "theres C and H" the oil is in the middle already)

If you went to a body shop for an engine problem, you're in big trouble already!
Check your oil filter yourself. When you get under there, you may see where the oil is coming from (assuming it is oil you are talking about).

what kind of fluid is leaking???? if its oil, definately check the filter and the drain. for some reason, correct me if im wrong, but isnt the oil pressure pretty high on start up to get the oil flowing? your best bet is take it to a mechanic, or even a jiffy lube or lube works and ask where they think the oil is coming from

If you noticed this after a recent oil change, could be from left over spillage of oil. Take it to any automotive repair shop, and they should be able to find a leak, wehter its the oil pan gasket, oil filter seal, other misc., seals. This is oil we are taking about right.
