Xantia oil leak
My car is a 94 1.9TD I have an oil leak that appears to be coming from somewhere behind the auxillary belt tensioner. It does'nt seem to be the bottom crank oil seal,as far as I can see it's coming from one of the bolts that hold the oil seal carrier in place.Has anyone else had a leak from this area?

Tightening head bolt's further wont make any difference, the gasket wont have anything left to give after seven or Eight years, once oil or water gets through it's curtains.
The best you can do is make positive identification of where it's coming from then get stuck in, unless of course you can live with it untill it let's go for good.
Can't imagine where else oil can get out round there that high up apart from rocker cover, but you would spot a leak there easey.
