⚙️ Key Features

• Oil system pipe
• 0.98 kg
• Listed for four D series engine applications
• Sits alongside pipe 23398320 at 1.042 kg on the same four engines - the two are close in weight, so order by number

🔌 Function

Carries engine oil between two points in the lubrication circuit, holding the flow at pressure and in a fixed route clear of moving and hot parts.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Oil film, drips or a fresh wet trail along the pipe run
• Oil pressure lower than usual, or slow to come up when cold
• Chafe mark or bright rub through the pipe wall where it touches a bracket or hose
• Cracks at the ends of the pipe or at a bend when cleaned off and inspected
• Burnt oil smell if the leak reaches an exhaust or turbo surface

🛠️ Service Notes

• Renew the sealing washers or O-rings at both ends when fitting - reusing them is the common cause of a repeat weep
• Fit the pipe and start its fixings before finally tightening either end, so the run is not pulled into strain
• Pipe 23398320 covers the same engines and is a different part - check the number against the section before ordering

📦 Condition
