Hi been thinking about fixing this oil leak for some time now but haven’t had the time until last week I was told by two (got a second opinion) that i have a timing cover leak that will need to be fixed soon. Winter is coming fast here in sweden now and i would very much like to have a clean floor when the snow starts to fall
It took me some time to figure out where the oil actually came from. I'd expect that either a cam seal, main crank seal or all are the issue. If oil is leaking from the timing cover of this engine, the cover likely needs to be resealed
The photo doesn't show the timing cover, it shows the underside of the oil pan.
Discussion in ' 3rd gen I have a pretty serious oil leak (loosing about 3l per oil change) its appearing all throughout the front of the engine Took it to a shop they suspected an oil leak around the vaccuum pump and sealed it up It continued to leak so brought it back and they now suspect a leak from behind the timing cover
Any idea what could cause this Seems like a pretty expensive job to get in there. For what it's worth, i had a timing cover leak on my wife's dodge caravan 3.8l v6 Same repair as for your engine
Had the dealer do it under extended warranty ($800 repair)
Developed the same leak 13 months later (now out of warranty) Did the bar's stop leak, the old black stuff Leak slowed from 1 qt of coolant every 3 months to 1/2 qt per year I've had uoas on every oil change for the.
In canada the warranty is 5 years with unlimited mileage I would discuss it further with the service manager and/or mazda corporate I looked at the timing cover area from the top of the engine yesterday and it appears that there are a few drops of oil there again. The alternator bracket leak is a hard one to pinpoint, as the upper timing cover can leak oil down, the engine to that area
If the alternator bracket seal is leaking, in will dump a lot of oil on the ground.
I am learning that timing cover leaks are a big thing in certain toyota and lexus vehicles I think it's primarily associated with 6 cylinder I am learning it is a glue issue that involves removing the engine at over 20 hours of labor ($2500 job) have any of you had any experience with this repair Oil is not leaking on the ground yet but i was told to expect it to get to that point.
