Hi,

I have got a R reg Corsa LS 1.0 12v and i noticed about a week ago that there was loads of oil in the engine bay. I topped up the oil and left it a week to see if loads of oil was leaking and hardly any had gone.

After searching for a leak, i finally found what the problem is. I think it is the fuel injector, but not 100% sure as i have about as much car knowledge as i have rocket knowledge . So I'm hoping somewhere on here with more knowledge then me can help.

The reason i think its the fuel injector is because the more revs the car is it, the more it leaks. When idling it drips about twice a minute, with half revs it drips about 20 - 30 times a minute.

This is the part thats leaking:



And closer:



And up close:



Any help would be appreciated very much.

thats the oil pressure sensor, its a common fault on these engines and easy to fix.

You just need to replace it with a new one.

Cheers, went to the garage and he said it was the oil pressure sensor, cost £25 for him to do it.

Was going to do it myself but i thought rather then ordering and waiting for the part, and then searching everywhere for the socket i would just pay Atleast if it goes again i know what it is.

Thanks for your help though!
