Mazda 5 is making puddles. Need tips for end links too.

I love our 09 Mazda 5 Grand Touring! But it is leaving larger and larger oil spots. I suspect the oil cooler. The Mazda part is over $400. An ebay one is like $60. Thoughts on this please. Also looking for thoughts on sway bar end links. Thank you!

My 5 has 132000 and was just reported to have a clunk in the front. I'll check the end links first. Other than that oil changes and rear shocks at 110k.

My 5 has 149k and six sets of endlinks. It is slammed and has a JBR rear sway bar which contributed heavily. Oddly enough the best set was Oreillys "euro" line which are still on the car and have grease zerks which the other options didn't. As for the oil link I think I would be looking at the pressed ends on the oil cooler lines first; they LOOK really chintzy although mine still don't leak. Let us know what you find!

I skipped all the oe endlink solutions when i stuffed a hotchkis bar set under my ms3. Awr makes a really good adjustable set, as does tripoint iirc. The oe ones are junk.
