Right spotted a couple of marks on the road outside, quick smell test and it's veg/derv but can't seem to find out where it's leaking from. Hand at the bottom of the pump and it's very damp.

Pump off job to replace seals?
Anyone local who is up for it?

looks like a poss front main seal leaking and running down the back of the pump easy enough to do on the car but requires cambelt off but if ones died is stick all new seals in there tbh Smile

Christ more info needed to determine that one, it could just be an injector. I can only see a slight bit of oily residue on the block which is perfectly normal. The spot on the floor sure that wasnt oil? 'cos these motors leak like a bitch. Check the exact spot where its leaking from under the car.

Veg tends to swell rubber seals so you get more leaks. Mine was leaking from the top cover.
