looking for broken pipe to see where my water leak is from the washer system, put on 4 poster couldnt find anything, but!!!!!!!!!

 

found this!!!!! oil.. lots of it..

 

and what seems to be a broken cable to what seems like the oil pressure sender on the left turbo side of the car..

 

so now its off to ztech.. fookin ell.. im gonna dread this!!

 

and i still didnt find that fookin water leak!! wouldnt leeak for anything damn thing..

 

so its a full service and what ever else now!

 

wierd thing is there is no oil anywhere on my drive i would expect there to be some somewhere if its a bad leak.. but nothing!!

Sounds like you have an aftermarket mechanical oil pressure guage and the line has come off / broken, easy fix but a bit messy as you can see.

nope no after market guages in the car anywhere all stock, a few wierd looking parts under the car, including one that has some sort of hand turned valve assembly, i meant to ake a piccy of that but forgot!! :headvswal

"could be" from the PCV valve above all that lot ! :confused:

I may be wrong though :nelson:

could be one of the power steering pipes as i have a similar leak but at a smaller scale around same area, or rear cam seals, crank seal

Apart from the p/s fuild and oil that's been splashed about you've not nothing to worry about. The standard UK oil pressure sender cable only requires one cable.

yep the pipe thats coming from the sender that looks broke isnt broke,there all like that si as simon pointed out

 

looks a bit stained at the rear of the gearbox,is that leaking from above on to it or is the rear of your gearbox coated in oil?

i dunno.. i break it you fix it.. so there! :hyper:

i dunno.. i break it you fix it.. so there! :hyper:

:D

the first pic with the oil filter in the par next to it it coated in oil and i did wipe down the filter beofre it was spotless now its coated again. so there must be some small leak there by the looks of it, just where!!.

 

i can see an engine out jobby happening! be good i suppose that way all the pipes get replaced with new!

 

see that v8 small block in that lambo would have been dog easy to work on!! easier than this..

 

well i might just have a poke around in there tomorrow and clean a few things up if i can get in there.

 

anywhere to look at? before i drive down.

 

also theres a little coolant leak by the looks of it on the left hand side behind the intercooler is that right?? look at piccy its the passenger side at front of bumper behind that little rad thingy!! :rofl: :rofl: gotta love those visualisations.

That water leak could be the overflow from the expansion bottle, if your rad cap is knackered then it fills this bottle up and overflows and drips onto the N/S intercooler.
