-
well how weird is this! I got into work today and picked up my oil, checked the oil on my lunch break and hey presto i now have NO lumpyness at all and probally the most strange is that the level was to the top, full, opposite of empty, completely ruddy full :huh: :blink: :o weird or wot!
-
might just do that sam. it would be good to get a few people to do some meets every now and then around this area, weston is as good a place as any. :D B)
-
ok, i'll try tomorrow to get a pic as i'm getting some oil from work and gonna top it up and keep an eye on it. £29 for a 4lt castrol 10 60w, bit cheaper than the £45 at halfords. :P
-

-
well they look dark, almost like tissue or something, weird?
-
uuummm! there is a smell there but not a smell i'd associate with burning oil, but i don't really know much :unsure: i check the oil and did notice funny little lumps (about 3-4mm roundish) it runs like a dream really. i have got a rac gold warranty with it as well so hopefully what ever it is it'll be covered...i sooo hope :unsure:
-
cheers guys, so i may of bought a banger, i hope the warranty will cover what ever it is :(
-
ok, i'll top it up when i get back to work monday as i work for a motor factor, would there be any signs if the head gasket is gone (apart from a lack of oil). how many hours labour would i be looking at for a garage to do that? :unsure:
-
:lol: :lol: :lol:
-
i've only used mine around town at the mo and i'm seeing about 15mpg :blink: might take it for a run on the motorway soon and see what it does then?? hopefully see a better figure there as its a 3.2 :huh:
-
ok, i had a thread asking same question in the "3 series" section and no-one answered :( i just wanted to know if there is anything to look out for on the e46 m3 (common faults or known issues), any info would be much appreciated. :) 1 thing is that i've just got someone to check my oil and it's low, yet i only took delivery of it on the 12/09/11 and he apparently had a service done on it (garage man person thingy) and i cant seem to see any puddles? any ideas? :blink:
-
32, feel about 22 and wish i was. :(
