Engine Oil Leak - 1998 V40 2.0T
Hi...
I bought a 1998 V40 - 2.0T (low pressure turbo-b4204T) few months back, recently I found there was engine oil leaks on the gasket (below return oil pipe from the turbocharger unit). It is not the oil pan gasket but the one above. It's really anoying. Any suggestion? The leak gets worse when it is very hot and under highway driving. I brought the car to the workshop last week (for the engine oil +filter change), the mechanic said that he will tighten the bolts (I'm not sure which ones, maybe the ones at the oil pan). It stopped leaking for about one weekbut after I used for highway driving (about 2 hours drive) it leaked again.
It is my first time with a Volvo, always use a Toyota before. The odometer just clocked 55K kms.
thanks
