Hi All

I've noticed a small amount of oil collecting on top of the chassis lattice work just below the main engine pulley (the large wheel that the V belt attaches to on the pre-serp). Not noticed the actual oil level going down at all though. Anything to be too concerned about?

When I found oil there it turned out to be the banjo seal for the PAS that had failed. Have you checked the PAS oil level too?

No PAS, so that rules that one out smile Just need to check the other multitude of places now.
