Took it to garage for inspection, had oil changed, saw spots of oil in driveway. Took it back to garage, put up on lift, saw oil coming from back of engine, Mechanic said slight leak, not worthy of repairing at this time, just keep an eye on it.

Drive very few miles, checked oil level in early March 2015 oil level in OK range. Don't want to get stuck with big bill in future, not sure if it is still

under warranty, bought the car used in spring of 2014, had been a lease car.

Should I take it back to Chevy garage, mileage around 46,000 now, or assume it will be OK? Retired, can't afford a big bill on just social security.
