Peugeot 306, 1998 1.6xs oil leak problem

May 02, 2005 1 Replies

My 1998 1.6xs 306, is leaking oil, i cannot see where it is coming from, it is near the oil filter but doesnt look like it is coming from the oil filter directly though.



It has got to the bottom of the power steering part, just near the oil filter, and ive tried wiping it of, then when i go for a drive it comes back, and starts to dripp small drops.



is there a common leak problem with t=306's, and can it be eaisly repaired Any help considered Any ideas,


thanks


Check the oil pressure switch just above the filter. Could be where the switch screws into the block, or even from the switch itself, up through the middle. If not maybe the head gasket at the corner just behind the timing belt cover, and runnng down.
