Great video. It's a difficult one to video! But I think I understand, will attempt this. I have a a similar vehicle although it was called a Chevrolet Trailblazer in South Africa. We have this exact issue, intermittent leaks and now I know where to look for the leak at least.

There's one in the front too. Whenever doing timing belt, you can get to it. Always best to seal that one too.

One thing I would recommend is at 13:30 I would put a dab of grease on the Allen key to help keep it in the bolt head.

I just did one of these but had to come in from up top had to remove the engine lifting bracket. The trans dipstick tube was in the way so I couldn't get in from the side.

I have similar problem but i’ve been told i need to change the whole oil cooler part! Is it true or does cleaning the screw only will stop the leak?
@a1mechanicaloakey639 3 жыл бұрын
Oil cooler and the part on the video is totally different things and location. So you could have a different issue than that of my video.
