Oil Leak problem
« on: June 26, 2006, 09:02:20 »
Can Anyone help, My Defender has got an oil leak that is I think getting worse, I say I think, because at the moment it is parked on concreate and not grass and looks a lot worse, the drips are coming from the flat peace of metal just in front of the wading plug on the bellhousing, I have wading plugs fitted and was expecting it to go everyware once i took out the plug but it was dry? :?
Has anyone else seen this and if so do I need to panic now and go see the bank manager again? :cry:

Thanks In advance.

Not every problem can be solved with duct tape, and it's exactly for those situations we have WD 40

I think it's Engine Oil, it looks to dark to be From the Gearbox. :cry:
I was talking to a friend and he said it might be the rear crank seal, but I don't no at what stage is it time to panic, and by leaving it for a bit will this cause any other damage :?
