oil leak
I seem to have developed an oil leak since changing the engine and gearbox oil, i was wondering if theres a common place that the 94 turbo engine springs leaks it seems to be coming from the back of the engine and i would say its engine oil as it dont smell like gearbox oil, any ideas guys??

Re: oil leak
Hi Mate i could well be your rear crank seal, Mine was leaking like that and had it replaced whilst they have the box out if you do get it done you might want to replace the clutch

Re: oil leak
yep thats what im thinking too, the puff is as the oil drips onto the downpipe it burns off, whent he cars warm pop the bonntet and have a look down the left hand side behind the engine, if theres a puff of smoke it will be coming from there

Re: oil leak
cam seals are pretty common, i dont think there mega expensive if caught in time. best bet get your chosen garage/tuner to give you a quote to sort it
