Hi folks, hope you can help again pls?
My Marea 1.9 JTD has a slight oil leak from what appears to be the base of the dip stick pipe, where it joins the block. ( theres none coming up the pipe and out the dipstick ). Has anyone experienced this and what is likely cause, solution. I change the oil and flush regularly, but dont know history, so it could be due to blocked breathers - where are they and can they be cleaned or maybe its due to corrosion ? any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks Peter

Its prob the o-ring at the bottom of the tube.It seals the tube to the block only one bolt holding it in place and then pull it out just get an o-ring that fits the tube bit of sealant and bobs your uncle fannys your aunt and slim dick is your uncles brother job done(y)
 
Hi, Was that the cause? I've got the same thing in my 1.9 Doblo. I'll try and change the o-ring tomorrow and see if that's the issue.

Cheers
