Hi
My oil pump from my 2006 70 tldi have a very small leak
one drop in 1 hour of use
The leak is from the lid of the electrical part of the pump
Does anyone know if it is being repaired or needs replacement?
Thanks for your time

Hi, old thread but I have the same issue - worth a shot in the dark. Did you resolve the leaking oil pump? I removed the three screws that hold the metal lid on top of the pump and removed the lid. I found a stray plastic piece under the connector. Nothing else to do, so reassemble and tried to tighten the screws, but the leak remains. However, there was no sealant or gasket between the top lid and the bottom metal plate, which is strange, if there is supposed to be oil in the upper compartment then surely leaks must be common.
