Hi i have a 2002 grand voyager 2.5 diesel which started leaking oil. I had someone look at it and they said it is a rubber pipe that runs from the oil cooler to the turbo. Nearest to the oil filter (inner). Does this sound possible? Would anyone have a diagram of the back of the grand voyager engine?

 

Before you start taking off turbo oil pipes etc, check that the oil filter has not worked itself loose.

This has happened a few times on my 2.8 CRD and produces the exact symptoms that you describe.

 

i have this as well oil dripping down from the back of the engne

 

There is black oil in the water too. Been told it could be the oil cooler or head gasket. Oil cooler is £420!!

 

Does anyone have a picture of an oil cooler on a 2002 2.5 diesel grand voyager?

 

The oil cooler is behind the engine. You can't miss it as that's where the oil filter screws into. Best access is from underneath.

Although you can't rule anything out at this stage, oil cooler failures are pretty rare on this forum (i've never seen one reported in 2 years of membership) and oil in the water usually ends up being head gasket failure. Has it done high miles?
