oil at base of breather pipe

[guest668]

when i take my srx for ride i keep getting oil build up at base of engine breather pipe...it trickles down side of cases and onto floor when i stop...but stops once engine is cooled down...anyone got  explanations for what might be causing this ?

Aye beezer764,

Is the breather pipe clagged up with 'mayonaisse' or has it perished or hardened? Do you still have the naff rusting clip at the bottom, like I have? Overfilled the oil?

Sorry not to be more creative, but often its the simple things that are worth checking first.

Hope this helps, if not come back on.

All the best, Bill.
