I have a 2014 jk that leaks oil. The rear main seal has been replaced, still leaked at the bottom. Read about the oil cooler issues so I had that replaced and this thing is still dripping oil. And help in this area would be greatly appreciated. It’s currently in a shop and so far they can find it. If you’ve been through this hell tell me what you know, first time on forum.
 
Have you put some UV dye in the oil? If you do that, then let it run for a bit, then turn off the lights and get a UV flashlight, you will instantly be able to pinpoint where the oil is leaking from.

This is the best way to find an oil leak, as it takes away any guessing.
 
Synthetic oils doesn't help either and so I would dump a snake oil (to expand the rubber gasket) on it just to see if it works. Let us know what is the verdict.
