I have a slight oil leak coming from the left rear of my engine. It appears to be from the area of the large round plastic valve (?) with two tubes connected to it. The following image of a Chrysler OM642 engine shows the part I mean...

Hi, I have an 05 c270cdi 160,000mls and getting exhaust fumes inside. It's taken me a long time to find it but I have found the culprit. The turbocharger wastegate actuator pivot shaft is leaking, exhaust deposits around it and you can see it leaking when throttle pressed. I am presuming that...

My 209 CLK is losing power steering fluid. I took it into a garage today but they could not find any signs of a leak, they did report that there was a drip from the gearbox. Does anyone have a diagram of the route the power steering pipes take around the engine as I suspect one is close to...

Hi, Is it possible to make the hard top of the R107 water tight? How about the soft top, can that be leak free? Cheers, Giles

Hi All I seem to have a leak getting into the drivers side door pillar on my 2008 204 estate, it does not have a sun roof, so I am thinking it might be the roof bar mountings. what I get is the seat belt is quite damp after it has been raining, and a dampness to the carpet at the bottom of the...

Hi all, Can anyone drop me a line on the below, which I have just been advised by my indy on a diagnosis visit (W211 270CDI, 53/2003): 1) I have the glow plug light on most of the time. I think I can recall this starting when I travelled through some really big floods recently. Indy has...

Hi Guys, My partners ML has developed a huge oil leak with the engine running, it's coming from the bell housing area, gearbox has been removed, crankshaft seal has been replaced (even though it was fine). Eventually traced the leak to a hole about the size of a pea in the bell housing, this...

Hi, I've recently acquired a 2007 Vito Dualiner which has a slight leak from the rear 3rd brake light (abouve the rear door). I've taken the brake light off (three screws) and found a hole about the size of a 20p piece through which the cable runs. Should this aperture have some sort of...

Hi, I have a 2011 b class and have a big fuel leak in the engine compartment. It seems to come from quite a big hole in one of the rubber fuel pipes. I'm 3 months out of warranty so wanted to know a ball park price to repair at Mercedes. They only did a major service 3 months ago and the fuel...

Hi I posted a few weeks ago as I had a oil leak since then I have had the sump gasket and inlet manifold replaced but I am still having a oil leak from the same area. Is it likely to be excess oil from where it was leaking before or is there anything else that needs replacing Thanks...

Usual water ingress problem, all carpets out etc and trying to track it down. Sunroof drains front and rear ok as are the main front drains. Water seems to come in from the heater vents below the wiper arm. Inspecting under the passenger side dash, there is 1" hole in the top of the...

Hi, New ML owner of two months and what a two months it has been. Bought the car in August and within two weeks a turbo fault had become apparent. Diagnosed as a faulty sensor giving intermittent power loss. Replaced whole turbo, partly paid for by dealer. Three weeks later it rained. Not a big...

Guys just noticed little lubricant leak from my front bumper, looks like an intercooler pipe connection, could someone point me into the right direction? I've wiped the lubricant from the bumpers, there seems to be no colour or smell to it, left no colour marks on the towel.

Hi everyone. I have had an oil leak on my C63 the last few days, its done 32000 miles. Its only a very slight leak but creates smoke as the oil drips and hits the exhaust. I have had the engine to bits and had the rocker cover off. Initially I thought it was the gasket so replaced this but...

Hello All, I've got a recurring oil leak on my old bus. The car is using much more oil than my previous 124's (more than none, that is) and there is a leak which is showing itself on the front nearside wheel, especially after a run. The head gasket was refurbed last year and I've had the...

The leak off lines on my car are popping off with really annoying frequency, three times in the last week, once on a trip to Bristol. The boys on Biopowered - vegetable oil and biodiesel forum - Index say nylon tubing is 100% bulletproof & once on is a bitch to try to remove so little chance of...

Evening Chaps, I've filled the new addition to the family full of petrol today for the first time. I wanted to add some additive to help clean the internals so I put £50 worth in, drove to ECP and back to get the additive, then topped up with the additive. I thought after putting the first...
