98 V70 GLT dumping oil

Post by **stephansvolvo** » 13 May 2015, 00:10

Got the head and all engine component put back in, changed oil, and replaced the coolant. I have a small coolant leak from the passenger side. I can't see exactly where it's coming from. The oil seems to be coming out of the back of the block where there's a tube that seems to come from the turbo. Any ideas? I may have overfilled it by a half qt, would this cause it to run out of that hole?

Thanks for all your help.

Coolant or oil leak? Soy confuso....

The turbo cars have a metal manifold that runs across the back of the engine..there is a small hose that connects this to the reservoir that can leak. If you removed it, I would replace it.

Volvo part only, not URO

You need to take care of these 2 turbo hoses ASAP.
Otherwise, all the work you just did goes down the drain...

Sorry, oil from the back. In this picture under the turbo there is a metal line that goes into the block. This is where the oil is coming from. What is this line? To the right of the red arrow towards the right side of the turbo
The slight coolant dripping is on the passenger side. I have to pull the timing cover to verify its source.
