Hi All,

I've got an oil leak on my car, it's coming from the flywhhel end of the crank.

The oil seal was replaced just before Christmas. Yesterday when I replaced the clutch I noticed a little oil coming from one of the flywheel bolt holes. I wasn't worried at the time as I was replacing the flywheel bolts and presumesd this would fix it.

I was wrong.

It seems worse than ever. The leak didn't look to be coming from the oil seal itself and it now has new bolts. So what the hell is going on? I'm getting a patch of oil on the drive evertime I park up about 2 - 3 cm in diameter.

I've got no issues with stripping it down again (got it down to about 5 hours now to strip/rebulid!!) but I don't know what to do with it when I do!

Any ideas?

its norrmal for oil to come out the lowest bolt hole but i guess you need to use a thread locker and am presuming this was done.

Its either the crank seals f*cked but not likely.

Or Probably the shitty pug end cap seals. IN which case total c*nt to do.

sump and box off and then undo the end piece of engine block that secures end of crank in place. use new seals and autojoint.

Haynes manual covers the replacement of the seals

0127 40 is the part, listed with the block not the crank.
