Engine oil seeping
Posted: Wed May 25, 2011 7:56 am
Hi, I wonder if anybody can help me out with this one. I recently was checking oil and fluid levels on my 2.5 td engine when I noticed a small oil leak coming from the right hand side of the engine. I thought I had smelt a small oil burn previously. When I took the van in for a service, I asked the mechanic to check out this leak. He came back to me with the answer ,"don't worry, a lot of bongo engines leak a little oil ". I for one know for a fact that an oil leak could indicate a failing cylinder head, but I have not experienced any other problems such as loss of power, emulsified oil, oily coolant. Has anybody encountered a reaction like this before, as I would rather take action now than suffer later. Many thanks for reading
