Hi, I've been to look at a 2016 140BHP Manual camper today. It's done 115K miles and 2 mots ago there was an advisory for an oil leak but not excessive. Owner said it was sorted when cambelt changed but looks like cambelt was done before the mot with the advisory. I have had a look under front...

Hi guys, on my 2017 t6 Caravelle 2.0 150 hp engine i found an oil leak, last week the timing belt was changed and the (private) garage told me that is not coming from crankshaft. They cleared the right side of engine and told me to check if still leaking. Today I found this. Is coming from the...

Had the vans 1st mot done which it passed but the tester noted a minor oil leak. After I investigated it I found the source see photo. So it is either the crankshaft seal or sump seal on the plastic part that houses the crankshaft seal or both - that's the bad news, good news is I had the mot...

Hi All, Just had my 2019 Transporter serviced ( 60,000klm ) & the mechanic mentioned that there was a slight weep of oil when he took the plastic lower engine cover off. This leak was also mentioned on the Automatic transmission's service report at the same time. Does anyone know where this...

Hi I picked up a VW T6 with 45K mileage. It had dual mass flywheel and clutch and cambelt done back in October '21 and it's done less than 5k since then. Thought I'd see about a VW all-in-one package but when they checked the car they said the oil level was way too high, and there was an leak...

Hi all, just after a bit of advice, bought a T6 204 DSG 4motion a month or so ago and took out All in package so have warranty. It’s had some work done but one thing not being covered is a front main oil seal leak, apparently a flange low down around the cambelt/tensioner. It’s a cambelt off and...

Evening, Has anyone had any issues with the oil filler cap leaking? I’ve started to notice that the engine is leaking oil around the cap down into the engine bay. Is it just a simple swap out for a new cap or is this something more serious?

Hi 2017 T6 covered 48k miles I noticed drops of oil on the drive and then looked underneath this evening and saw this…. The van had a major service 2000 miles (and 6 weeks ago). Any advice would be great. Thanks

Hi All I have noticed this appearing during a service the other day, I have not seen anyone else with this problem on line. What do you think about it. Its booked in at Listers for investigation. To me it looks like the sump seal is weeping and maybe quiet a job. 2018 T6 30,000 miles 102

Just had the 2 year service done at Listers, Coventry. A couple of faults were identified: An oil leak and SCR fault/update required (something about a fault with the adblue system). Regarding the oil leak, I fear it may be the much talked about crank seal issue, as they suggested they would...
