Familiar XC60 oil leak
I have the familiar oil leak on my 2014 XC60 D5 AWD from the nipple on the air inlet pipe.
I'm using this video as a guide to what I need to do as regards resealing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kLhsfrZ6vKE The video does omit one step however – when the charge air pipe is shown detached it is unclear how they detached the nipple from the crimped on connection to the small hose I have arrowed in the crimped connector on the attached photo. My assumption is that it will be necessary to cut off this connector and replace it with another jubilee type clip. The groove in the hose that the clip fits into is narrower so it can’t be the 12mm or so width of the clip on the other side, looks more like 7-8mm width is required. Any advice / comments appreciated

I have noticed that mine is leaky and has been doing it for some time, I have 150000 on the clock and to be honest expected a few oil leaks and as I have bigger fish to fry on my car I have not given it any more thoughts, when I put my car back together (it's in parts at the moment) I will inspect the part better - seems a simple fix in the video!

My xc70 with 170k had quite a bit of oil on, the heater nipple was pretty loose, that clamp on the rubber/soft plastic pipe to the CC separator had a jubilee clip.
My v60 with 50k has the volvo "improved" design but still shows oil leaking out. I'll be putting a jubilee clip on the hose clamp I needed to break off on the breather pipe. It spears to be the best way of securing the pipe. Short answer, break off the clamp, discard and replace with a de ent jubilee clip. |
