Hi, folks.

I have a question about EGS reservoir.

it's looks basicaly oily, and the oil is spreading down to the engine shield.

it seems that actuator oil is leaking from a small hole of the reservoir cap, maybe working as a pressure release valve.

mine has 57812 miles on clock, EGS always works perfect !

but I am wondering here, why doesn't the actuator oil level change at all in spite of oil leak ? it has never been topped up before since I bought my car.

how about your EGS ?

thank you in advance.

Could it be engine oil?

thanks David.

Engine oil level doesn't chage at all, too. and mine has never been pointed out engine oil leak in MOT. I have done every engine-oil-change by myself during all my ownership, never spotted any oil bleeding.
