That is the traditional oil filter cover leak. Posted by SWEDECAR [Email] ![]() ![]() ![]() In Reply to: Does this look like a leak? What is black sensor., Walt ![]() |
On the 9-5 engine they had to move the oil filter from engine block to an oil filter adapter since the turbo unit is covering the original spot.
That aluminum cover seen in pic saableak3 above the black CKP sensor is of a little bit weak nature and the O-ring behind the cover is thin.
After some years and heat cycles the o-ring give up its ghost and it starts to leak.
The easiest way to replace that o-ring is to remove the turbo return line and CKP sensor to access cover.
That way you also get new gaskets and o-rings on the turbo pipe and sensor at the same time.
It takes about 1 to 1 1/2 hour to reseal.
But honestly, it is not leaking very much at this time.
