I seem to have developed a bit of oil leak on my 78,000 mile TD5. Some may remember this is the same engine that developed a porous head on the common fuel rail at 65,000 which resulted in my having to install a new Turner Engineering Head with the strengthened fuel rails – and a new turbo...
I noticed that there seems to be a bit of oil staining on the underside of the bonnet and around the EGR and cooler and on the head – I am not convinced it is the head or head gasket – everything else is working fine and I am not losing water.
If oil mist is being thrown around my suspicion was the intercooler hoses – (got a few drops out of the hoses a while back) or turbo feed lines but just want to see if anyone else has any views or opinions?
