Dipstick leaking??

[kingo228]

anyone had the dipstick tube o-ring leak before??

thought it was the sump as it was coming from around the alternator bracket , but done the seal and it still leaks.

looks like theres a little pool around the bottom of dipstick?

Any help appreciated

On my 4age it leaked after i had it powercoated, chipped the paint off where the oring sits as it had made the oring stretch more than it should and cause it to split when pushed in the hole, replaced it and its been fine ever since.

Any oring close to the size u need will be fine toyota want about £3 for something worth 2p lol
