Just got the Elise back from having the down pipe replaced and they tell me there is oil in the expansion tank. Anyone else had this problem? Apparently there isnt any water in the oil though!

Any ideas?

Not personally had this but I don't think that it's a good thing. Who gave you the car back with that as an existing problem?
