Engine - Oil Leaks

NOTE:
NOTE:Before installing new gaskets or oil seals, make sure that the fault is clearly established.

If the oil leak cannot be identified clearly by a visual inspection, carry out an ultraviolet (UV) test:

Ultraviolet (UV) Testing

  1. Clean the engine and transmission with a suitable cleaning fluid.
  1. Pour the UV-test fluid in accordance with the quantity specified by the manufacturer through the oil filler neck into the engine and install the oil filler cap.
WARNING:
WARNING:Vehicles with manual transaxle, shift the transaxle into Neutral. Failure to follow this instruction may result in personal injury.
  1. Start the engine and let it run for about five minutes.
  1. Switch off the engine.
NOTE:
NOTE:If no leak can be found, road test the vehicle under various loads and check the engine for leaks again.
  1. Check the engine for oil leaks using a suitable UV lamp.
  1. Rectify any leaks found and check the engine for oil leaks.

Measure the compression pressure

NOTE:
NOTE:The powertrain control module (PCM) receives an error message when the fuel pump relay is removed or electrical components are disconnected. This error message must be deleted from the fault memory using worldwide diagnostic system (WDS) after completing the compression test.
NOTE:
NOTE:Valve clearance must be set correctly before performing a compression test. Make sure the engine is at the normal operating temperature.
NOTE:
NOTE:The varying design of compression checking devices and fluctuating starter motor speeds normally only allows for a comparison to be made of the compression pressures in all cylinders.

Measure the compression pressure (Engine - 1.8L Duratorq-TDCI (Kent) Diesel)

WARNING:
WARNING:Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel related components. Highly flammable mixtures are always present and can ignite. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
WARNING:
WARNING:Do not carry out any repairs to the fuel injection system without checking that the fuel pressure has dropped to zero and that the fuel temperature has either reached ambient temperature or is below 30°C, whichever is the greater. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
  1. Using datalogger in worldwide diagnostic system (WDS), check that the fuel pressure has dropped to zero and that the fuel temperature has either reached ambient temperature or is below 30°C, whichever is the greater.
