German term or phrase: Ölentlüftung
Ölentlüftung bei Vorderachse:
Die Ausführung der Entlüftung sollte neu überdacht werden, weil sich der O-Ring immer wieder verklebt und nur bei großem Druck die Entlüftung stattfindet!
Es ist schon mehrmals vorgekommen, dass sich bei solchen Problemen die Dichtmanschette der Achse nach Außen gedrückt hat.
The above text describes a problem with a tractor.
What is Ölentlüftung - how can oil and ventilation be connected?
Can anyone explain what is going on here, ie the general problem?

Explanation:
Axle venting system

Venting of lubricated spaces may be required to allow oil vapors or air bubbles to escape while preventing the oil from escaping and outside contaminants from entering.
