Re: Severe oil leak on S70 glt

Ok, I suppose the leak could be coming down from the valve cover. I am letting the heat shield cover bolts soak over night so I can get a better look tomorrow weather permitting.

Severe oil leak on S70 glt

I located where the oil is leaking from but do not know what I am looking at. It is not the turbo seals. It is coming from a white plastic looking gem five inches forward from the turbo seals coming out of the engine way up there above the front axel.

I am sure this is an easy question for ...
