HELP! Oil leak on GTi 180
-> 206 Problems

Hi guys,

Can anyone tell me what engine component this is?

It's located right next to the cam belts and pulley.

 


I noticed a tiny drop of oil on my garage floor and then looked underneath to find a very small discharge around the black seal.

If anyone can pass on details as to what this is, why it's caused and how to fix it?

Smile

Looks like the a/c pump. Maybe coming from above and dripping down

Pics not the best but as above it could be coming from above so check that out if you can too. I had a slight oil leak when i first bought my 180 which looked like somewhere around the rear of the sump but upon closer inspection it was the rear cam cover and had just run down over time.

Would the air conditioning pump/compressor leak oil? I didn't think that is a normal circumstance.

I'll take a closer look from above.

The PAS pump is directly above the air con pump...could the oil have come from there?
