I got the car up on the ramps today and set about this leaking rear seal.
Wasn't too impressed on first sight as there was oil where there shouldn't be any. I kept going and took a few more covers and pipes off to see if I could get a better picture of what's going on.
As I was doing this my eyes were drawn to the turbo and the air outlet. There was oil and first thought was bloody oil seal has gone, here comes my next job.
So I got things cleaned and while I was doing so the amount of oil is bare minimum, just looks worse with some road grime stuck to it.
The small black plastic covers that i removed let you see more of the flywheel teeth and there was more oil on the back of the flywheel. Yes some at the bottom of the housing but again very little. There is a slight weep somewhere but not 100% sure where from. Could be coming from the cover of the sump gasket where it joins to flywheel housing and tranny.
All clean now and I check again in 2 weeks.
Turbo side was all good, no oil inside turbo so major happy with that.
Q: Air Inlet to Turbo - what is the silver box just before Turbo, see picture.
