Another new problem on my 2.5 DSE, it had developed an oil leak from the oil cooler pipes where they join the bottom of the filter housing,fixed with new O rings, then oil leaked from the oil filter housing cap,fixed with a new O ring. Now it's leaking from the oil filter housing base!!
Could this be caused by excessive oil pressure due to a dodgy oil pressure relief valve? if so is it located in the sump? if not what could be causing this??
It never used to leak a drop but oil seems to be being forced out at any weak spot.
Any help much appreciated.
