My Discovery Sport has developed an engine oil leak. It seems to be coming from somewhere above the gearbox bellhousing. I removed the top of the air box and the oil is evident, starting the engine did not indicate where it is coming from, anyone had a similar issue?
Probably lost about 2ltr oil mostly evident on the lhs under the engine/tray

 

2 litres of oil is a very large amount to lose,, over what time frame? How often do you check your oil?

I would get the engine cleaned and have a garage put dye in the oil and monitor it.

With engine problems it is always best to tell what engine you have in the car.

 

I’ve had the car to a technician who found a ‘plug’ missing from the block near the intake manifold, if I recall our conversation correctly. On speaking with Landrover he was advised this had occurred in other vehicles, a replacement plug has been ordered, a relatively simple fix apparently. I don’t know (yet) how said plug is secured, apparently it has an ‘o’ ring.
I’ll update later
