Oil leak

[shamirj]

My D2 Td5 auto 150k has started leaking oil on the drivers side chassis. I have changed the oil harness some months ago but cant locate where it may have started. I need to clean up the effected area with a good wash and clean but are there any suggestions as to where it may come from. Oil is across the outer chassis (prob the inner as well) across the front half of the chassis to the coils. Stock standard td5. where do they commonly leak from. thanks:cool:

I have a moist spot/weep from the transfer case/output shaft interface is alloy with an O-ring. Apparently, this is a large source of leaks. You can get an upgraded housing where this is machined out and replaced with steel and solves the issue.

Hi have you checked the oil cooler??'mine had a small leek.......however went on a long drive without stopping..leek became gradually worse..and ended up bursting and cooking the head

Checked the intercooler hose clamps for tightness?

I would suspect the trans oil cooler line/s, get it looked at ASAP as when they go they GO in a big way.
