an update for anyone whos @rsed.
Cars been in the dealers all day(didnt get a courtesy car, even after complaining) they have worked out that the cam cover, block or sump is leaking oil....well its one of those things.....but its definitely.... definitely..... coming out of the engine and not one the rear head rests or a near by tree
Apparently they will start replacing bits and bobs until it stops leaking, so I guess its a nice few trips to the dealers, this fun will start on APRIL 25th!!! In three weeks time. I repeatedly queried if it was a good idea to drive it until then when even they noted it is leaking near to the exhaust manifold and their response was that there is absolutely no danger of it doing any damage to me or the car. Its booked in for THREE days which should give them enough time to at least diagnose it! (lol)…….THEN… they are going to order parts…”so as long as the parts are in the country” quote (lol x2) I should be ok….to get it fixed about May time. I also asked them to look at the knocking noise/engine mount problem which others peeps have had, and apparently its fine, so the knocking must be in my head(lol x3) I will take this up again when it goes in again.
Left the dealers well p-ssed off having just spent £170 on its first service, and in my opinion got pretty cr@p service.
Drove home with a bit of pace which put the smile back on my face…..but only just!
