ML320 Oil Leak - Above Alternator
 

Hello all. My 1999 Ml320 has an oil leak that seems to be coming from somewhere above the alternator. The oil would drip when the engine is running. Its a pretty bad leak but cant seem to pinpoint where its coming from. Any suggestions or comments? Thanks.

I did a Search This Forum on 'oil leak' and came up with these results http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/search.php?searchid=1533454 You can scroll down through the results and maybe find the answer to your problem. My 2 cents. ;)

Its a Very simple fix...Washer/Seal at the tensioner seen several on the 112/113s

Thanks for the replies guys.
Azinn - I clicked on the link but it seems to be a dead one.

Mark - Is this a simple washer swap on the tensioner? Do you know what's involved in servicing this, i.e. what items/parts need to be removed first before the tensioner is revealed? Is this just a matter of removing the tensioner and replacing the washer? Thanks again.
