The oil stains may be coming from your dryer. Try cleaning the inside of the drum throughly and see if this will help.

Do the stains come out when you rewash? If so it may be fabric softener staining, happened to me alot when i was living in apartments using laundry mats... I thought it was coming off my hubbys clothes so i started washing his seperate, turned out i was just stuffing it too full lol.. the shame....

I too was frustrated with those grease looking spots. It was always on shirts like Polo's. I thought it was something in my wash until one day I washed a brand new one, and it came out with that same old greasy looking spots. Someone told me that my temperature setting was too hot. I changed it to a less "heat cycle", and that DID work for me so far. Good luck!

No. Stains do no longer purely seem on a rug. perhaps somebody spilled something? yet heavily, in case you think of a stain can basically seem out of nowhere, then you quite're loopy... the two that, or your place is haunted. i think of your place could desire to be haunted.
