Having a bit of trouble with the water and oil on the t5 (02 v70).
Its running and driving fine but twice now it has spat out the dipstick along with a spray of oil. On the other note I'm getting a water leak from I believe the pump as its dripping from behind the cambelt cover. I removed it today and had it running for a bit but there's no drip and I cant get it to drip or blow the dipstick. I'm thinking it is only doing it when its been on a run and boosting. This is my first turbo car so I dont know if there is something that could be causing back pressure in the oil and cooling system? Any help will be apreciated.
