Pool of oil on top of engine around injectors

Postby dymondaudio » Mon May 19, 2014 8:06 am

56 (mk7) 2.4/100 lwb 350

There's a pool of oil that accumulates around the injectors, anyone else had the same or know what the problem is, i.e where it's leaking from?

The seals have gone in the rocker cover , you need new seals and new copper washers for the injectors

Nice one, thank you. I'll get a quote from my usual garage and go from there!

It doesn't sound expensive but that often means that it is !

Yes it'll cause increased noise, reduced power and increased fuel consumption
