    T6 front crankshaft oil seal leak (or something else?)

    Hi all, my T6 has recently started leaking oil from around the area of the crankshaft pulley. Someone told me it could be the oil seal or a different cause like a couple of loose bolts somewhere above. It only actually leaks when it is running but it collects in the engine tray and is quite a...

    Can a high biting point be due to fluid loss?

    Lost fluid would give you a low bite. High bite could well be the clutch on its last legs. Has it always been a high bite?? Oil leak is probably front crankshaft oil seal. Pull the upper timing cover off and look for oil contamination on the belt. If it's ok, then just monitor it

    Potential Van Purchase, how worried should i be about MOT advisories

    You may have seen these posts https://www.t6forum.com/search/8992683/?q=Front+crankshaft+oil+seal.&o=relevance When not if, I think. Shock absorbers advisory seems fairly common now (and misting is normal). I understand it will not fail MOT until fluid is dripping onto the floor. Still you...

    Oil leak but from where?

    I gave it a clean up but still not sure where it is coming from, I'm thinking either clutch seal side or the front of sump join. I guess if I dropped the sump and could re-seal and then also see if oil is coming from the crankshaft oil seal as the sump removal exposes some of the flywheel area...

    Cambelt + Water Pump Replacement - Official guidance

    The front sealing flange for the crankshaft on CX** engines is a common problem - oil leak starts around 100-120k km. When changing cambelt kit - ask to get the sealing flange changed as well. It won't add much labor as most of the necessary parts will be removed anyway. CXGB is your engine...

    What's the service interval for the vw wet belt oil pump?

    All of the Volkswagen T6 diesel engines. (And previous engines I'd imagine but I'd have to check) But before you get excited no it's not the timing belt ie the Ford wet belt issues. This is the oil pump drive belt that's fed from the sump. You can see it in the video clips above it's behind...
