Hi guys
Ive had an oil leak in my Monty for a while now and have never been able to locate it.
I have a fair amount of white smoke coming out the back of the car but I’m not loosing water, so I think it’s probably just a little more condensation than usual (living in Iceland).
The car isn’t using a huge amount of oil but more than I’d like, it needs regular top ups.
I’ve found caked up oil on the bottom of the hose coming from the steering pump.
I’ve also recently found oil on the sump. Hidden away in a hard to reach area at the front of the sump. I hoping it’s not the sump gasket as that looks a right pain to get to, but I’m pretty sure the oil is coming from above the gasket anyway. No drips, but it’s moist. Also, found oil on the underside of the exhaust manifold, gathered around the third bolt back.
Rear cam seals replaced so I know it’s not that.
Any suggestions?
