Concern

Oil leak may occur

Defect, as DVSA words it

It is possible for oil leaks to develop as a result of o-rings of incorrect specification being fitted to the oil pipes connected to the filter housing and cooling duct. If not rectified oil can leak onto the road surface and endanger other road users.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and replace the o-rings with ones of the correct specification.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
