Oil leak on my T4

betamike25 · Apr 24th, 2007, 16:29

Hi all, Have just taken the engine cover off to give it a clean and the recesses in the top off the engine are filled with engine oil. I had a good look and cant figure out where it is coming from. Any ideas out there. cheers

this is useually caused by drips when filling with oil, its also caused by a failed rubber seal on the filler cap.

What was the outcome of the turbo leaking. was it just a simple gasket? thanks

This my be very simple to solve. On my V40 T4 I only had to change the O-ring on the oilstick! The leak there made my engine very oily, and I had problem to find the leak! The whole engine was covered with oil!
