Guest joshxr2 Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Oil leaks Does anyone know of any favorite places an RS Turbo likes to leak oil from? As mine has an undisclosed leak fom somewhere and I'm buggered if I can find where it is. Its not losing a great deal of oil but emough for people to comment on the new oil colouring of their drives.

ianxr3i Posted February 19, 2009 Share Posted February 19, 2009 Rear Crankshaft oil seal is quite common & camshaft oil seals often develop leaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escort Cabriolet Club Posted February 20, 2009 Share Posted February 20, 2009 You can get leaks from badly fitted sumps, I know two Club Members who suffer from chronic leaks from theres !!! Then there is the old favorites, Oil Pressure switch etc !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
