oil leak

Post by woodson »

I have a S40 2001, 140k. Oil is leaking from the back top right corner of engine. What may that problem be?

Probably the rear cam seal. It is not easy to get at, but if you can get the cam position sensor cover off, you will be able to tell right away. If you see oil from there, that is for sure your problem.
