V40 oil leak help
Hi guys, ive got a v40 2017 1.5 petrol engine. The car has only done 8,000 miles but has developed an engine oil leak. On inspection i suspected front crank seal as it was dripping from lower timing cover. Ive stripped down the belt but the seal looks dry, looking at the evidence on the back of the cover it seems to be higher up. Cam seals look dry in that area. It is wet around headgasket area but i know theres a chance when the engine was running it could of been flicked up. Is there anything common on these engines especially with it being such low mileage
