SLS full of engine oil?
I searched but couldn't find anything...
I could be wrong, but it is black as pitch. I was near empty within the last couple months, and now it is full. Also, I did a flush within the last year, shouldn't be black by now with my reckoning... Thing is, operating pressure of the pump is higher than the pressure of engine oil, so how did this happen? Just a matter of rebuilding the pump?

Could engine oil be leaking into the suction side of the SLS pump?

There's no engine oil anywhere near the SLS system, unless you put it there. There can be cross contamination from the power steering system, though.
If the oil is black, my bet is on a failing component. How does it ride? |
