An oil filter housing leak is a common yet serious issue that can lead to major engine damage if left unattended. This vital component seals the connection between the oil filter and the engine block, ensuring proper oil flow. If compromised, it can allow oil to escape, reducing engine lubrication and causing performance issues. At Fiat Garage Dubai, we offer expert Fiat oil filter housing leak repair services to quickly and effectively fix the leak and protect your engine.
The oil filter housing holds the oil filter and connects it securely to the engine. It plays a key role in directing clean oil into your engine. Over time, this housing can develop leaks due to:
Worn or damaged gaskets and seals
Over-tightened or cross-threaded oil filters
Cracks in the housing unit
Heat-induced wear and tear
Leaks from the oil filter housing are serious and should be repaired promptly to avoid low oil levels and engine overheating.
Catching oil filter housing leaks early can help prevent expensive repairs later. Look out for the following signs:
Oil pooling beneath your vehicle
Visible oil stains around the oil filter area
Low oil levels between oil changes
Burning oil smell during driving
Engine warning lights or overheating
If you notice any of these symptoms, contact Fiat Garage Dubai for prompt diagnosis and repair.
