Gidday,
I've been trying to get threads on engine overhaul, but can't seem to find any, so I hope some of you can enlighten me on the early signs when engine overhaul is due.
Mine is 300Tdi and recently I sent the Disco to a workshop to fix leaks, from engine oil related, to auto transmission oil leak. The workshop did just that and also informed me that he (the mechanic) suspects a more serious problem from the engine, since he observed engine oil splattered all over. Well, based on my friend's advice I told him just to fix the leaks first and we'll see what happen next.
This is what's happened. The disco still leaks, engine oil still dripping from the flywheel housing' from its drain hole and when I pull out the engine oil dip stick while the engine was still running, oil starts spattering from the dip stick's hole!
What does this mean?? Engine overhaul is due?? My TDi milage is about 190k, year 1996.
