1998 Corolla AE110-Oil leak from distributor

[Wijever]

My car is a 1998 corolla AE110 and from last month, having small oil leak from distributor. For last two three days there is a strange sound coming when accelerating and it’s only comes in 2nd gear onwards.

if anyone have idea about the issue and appreciate your recommendations on good mechanic/garage  to fix this issue.

The oil leak and noise are probably two different things. Get the distriburor o-ring replaced to fix the oil leak. It's an easy repair. 

As for the noise, it's hard to say based on what you've said. Take it to a good garage and have a mechanic test drive the car to find out what the actual issue is.

Sorry friend, my bad. It’s automatic transmission.

Davy answered the question on the Dizzy.

YOUR TRANSMISSION,  

guess it is time over for a fluid change, and lt's telling you it's not doing good. So do a fluid change and check the mounts..

 

Good luck.

TT.
