Top metal pipe that comes out of the ird has started leaking just before the end of the rubber pipe. I am going to blank the rubber pipe ends or join them to create a loop , ending up with a non cooled ird unit. Quite a common practice apparently. I have a 150 mile journey to make next week, Is the ird likely to overheat, or will a 70mph wind flowing underneath be enough to keep it cool? There`s no undertray beneath the engine.
Did think about kseal, Its the long journey that concerns me, normal every day use wont be a problem, dont go far. Why it wasnt made with a larger oil capacity is strange anyway, a couple of litres of oil in what is basically a big diff would have probably been enough on its own without having a seperate cooler built in.
