Oil Leak

[eco16v]

Hi guys,

I appear to have an oil leak at 1 of the pipes above the oil filter at the oil pump on my ph1 GSi, I heard this is a common problem on the c20xe but how do I cure it?

Any help would be appreciated

You're on about one of the 2 pipes that comes out of the sandwich plate to the oil cooler yeah? I'd remove oil filter and plate (get an Allan key in there) and then clean all surfaces up and replace gasket on sandwich plate, or if you're sure its just a banjo fitting then clean that up so its a clean matting surface

Yep that's the pipes mate. Cheers for the tip
