Oil leak

Postby man le-mans » Wed Apr 13, 2022 1:11 pm

Noticed today that I have a oil leak on the van. Looks like it’s coming from the sump, and it’s only just done 22k. Anyone else had this or am I just unlucky.

Hi

what van do you have?

Sump pans rust through in super fast time. Is it rust allowing oil to seep through?

I didn’t see any rust when I had a quick look. But it’s a 68 plate FWD 350 with 22k miles which I’ve had since new. Only just 3 and half years old
