My partner has bought the 2007 1.5dci j10 engine. When the engine cover is lifted, top right of the engine is leaking. Also behind the dip stick a sensor is leaking, would i be correct in saying that's the oil pressure sensor? any help would be appriciated
Hi,
For a car of this age and if that's all the oil that's leaking I wouldn't bother doing anything of a mechanical nature. You're more likely to cause more issues when you disturb things. Now if you had a puddle of oil under the car, that would be another thing, but for a small amount of oil like that, I would use some solvent etc & just clean / wash.

Despite it running okay. I work on diesel locomotives from doing exams to engine rebuilds and id rather sort the leaking as that how ive always gone about things. I totally understand where your coming from as i used to have a vectra that was leaking minor and left it.
