Message: <blockquote data-quote="leynye yamin" data-source="post: 1063951180" data-attributes="member: 123148">for leakage problem i encounter after changing from mineral to semi is:- engine oil filter housing (next to exhaust manifold) leaked due to hardened oil ring(there are 2 o-rings, 1 is small and 1 is big ring); next is o-ring from nest to the valve cover there is a number 10 bolt that screws a plastic thingy that houses a o-ring as well, (if you unscrew that no.10 bolt you will pull out a plastic silinder with a o-ring attached to it.); camshaft and crankshaft oil seal leakage and valve cover spark plug oil seal leakage. so far i replaced the 2 pcs oil filter o-ring, replaced the plastic thingy o-ring, replaced timing belt and the 2 seals with tensioner bearing, and replaced the valve cover to new ones. At the moment no leaking can be seen. BTW, i proud to say that all replacement mentioned are DIY (i previously worked at perodua service centre, now work at normal office). slow and steady, haha! Anyway, i was told that there is theory that my engine might be running too hot and make the thinner viscosity oil cannot take the heat and evaporates thus my present situation. Is it true? bcos my friend/mech checked by turning the crankshaft pulley and said that compression is optimum and doesn't sound like leakage. But he insisted that i let him dismantle the engine and let him check and one time general overhaul together. I was quite reluctant to do so as i am very confident with my engine (the car is bought brand new, along with constant maintenance performed. ps: due to my driving style, my atf replacement is every 5k km with petronas atf d3 just to be on the safe side), i am confident that my engine is not giving up on me, but with its engine oil level keeps drying up like this(but at the moment no lar), i need to rethink whether this car should be set just for normal use.---------- Post added at 03:22 PM ---------- 6 hour anti-bump limit - Previous post was at 03:13 PM ----------Btw, is there any way to check valve or compression leakage externally? haha! just wondering.</blockquote>
