Can anyone guess what part to repair: engine is leaking, check engine light only goes off for a few days after?

It's a Chevy Cavalier, 2001 Just guess, what this means: The engine is leaking, (but only a small amount), check engine light only goes off for a few days after getting an oil change, and then a few days later the check engine light is back on again; what kind of weird engine leak could it be?


|||My guess is that there is a low oil sensor in the oil pan. When the oil level gets below this sensor, the light comes on. Perhaps the leaking oil is getting too low (not a good thing) and the light is coming on. Did you check your oil level after the light comes on? Where are the leaks coming from? You need to examine the car for any leaks.|||Ford dealer jobby if you don't know how|||Make sure the bolt to the oil pan is tight.
