Call me thick but, I checked the engine oil and it's red-like power steering fluid!
It's the work of the devil! The devil,I tells ya!

I should know,I know.

I know Silkolene do a purple and a red oil (Pro-R and Pro-S), and the red stuff looks like blood when you're pouring it in.

It's red? lol


Should be running on Castrol Edge 10w60 (not Sport). Originally Castrol TWS 10w60.

Those oils certainly aren't red!

Either that or Castrol TWS 10W-60 for M-series engines.

Neither of which are red! So whatever is in there at the moment certainly does not sound right confused
