Oil Leak

[Jlyl248]

Alright well I noticed two spots in the driveway and looked under to see that there was oil on top of the pan and all down the sides,its a slow leak it seems. I just had my egr delete with wastegate installed tues,they removed the cab. I don't recall a leak before,could this be a result of something from the cab removal or is there something else gone wrong? Thanks

Is it mostly on the drivers side? When I do an EGR delete I remove the dipstick tube, it makes it easier. If the O-ring on the dipstick tube is not seated properly, it will leak.

Ah its kinda hard to say. Because I can't see exactly where the leak is from, just where the oil is running. It wasn't leaking before I know that. I hope its not the rear main seal, i'll call them in the morning I guess, his work carries a year guarantee

Check for a crack in the dipstick right where it bolts to the head via the 10mm bolt. Mine had a crack right there.

Yeah, im just skeptical with not having the leak before the cab was off, so I wasn't sure if they pinched a line putting it back on or like stated above with the dipstick tube

It's the o ring on the dipstick tube, covered under installers pocket

Good to hear that it was a simple fix.

Mines leaking in same spot. Do you have a part number for the o-ring?
