Will do, car going in for major service later this month as the warranty up soon & want a warranty check done. Plus going to see if they will replace the Oz alloys (bit corroded but previous owner kerbed them :ShootingSmile

What i don't understand is, for a car that is known to like the odd drop of oil, you have to remove the whole engine cover to top it up? why not put a "flap" in the engine cover to access the oil filler?

"Life's goal is not to arrive safely at the grave in a well preserved body. But, rather to skid in sideways........
totally worn out and broken, shouting 'Holy ****, WHAT A RIDE!'"

I know what your saying but the cover comes off in 5 seconds, you dont have any screws or bolts to do it just.....well fits !
Oil top up every 1000 or so miles. But I knew what I was letting myself in for.
