michaelbailey 10 Posted July 31, 2016 Okay so lomg story short water and oil leaks. Oil leaking from typical oil cooler thats fine. But also above the oil filter. Is there a temp sensor in the top of the oil filter casing? Because this is where there seems to be a stream of oil coming from. Also a steady dripping of water coming from the aux belt area. Will this be from a water pump or something pipe going into it. All new rad and stuff just cant see where the waters coming from but a steady dripping every few seconds. Why dont vr6s like not leaking!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robrado974 1 Posted July 31, 2016 There are two sensors on the oil housing , I've just replaced mine as it was leaking from them . I think I paid £34.00 for both from TPS . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted July 31, 2016 You've hit the nail on the head with all of them I reckon. Only other thing where the water leak could be coming from is the "Crack pipe" which runs along the front of the block and feeds into the water pump. These are common problem areas so worth investigating that before water pump I reckon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fendervg 33 Posted July 31, 2016 You need to replace or at least check the whole cooling system if it is leaking. Fixing one part just moves the problem to another spot on this age of car. Just my experience. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
