    Engine Oil Consumption

    On another good note, euro car parts had a 50% off offer last week so I got 4 litres +1 and a new oil filter for £26. Now that's happy days. Sent from my G8141 using Tapatalk

    Turns out that the oil pressure switch is leaking and needs replacing. Cheap fix thankfully

    Engine Oil Consumption

    The secret(s) behind British license plates

    Where would SJ be in Scotland Johnny? That's where mine originated and I've seen a few different Scottish garages within the service history.

    Engine Oil Consumption

    It was full from service, which is why I wanted to check what people's thoughts were before taking it in. The oil was a cheap one, didn't go down so fast when using previous Petronas oil. I've topped back up with the Petronas oil, I'll keep an eye on how quick this goes and go from there. Thanks...

    Engine Oil Consumption

    That's good to hear. I didn't want to take it to a garage to find there isn't anything wrong and waste my money and their time. Like i said, in the service it was crap oil which i won't be making the mistake of using again. Next time i'll be buying everything myself and taking it with to get...

    Engine Oil Consumption

    My best ever Xmas present was last year when I bought myself my RS197. Best decision I've made, love the car. It's not the first time I've treated myself like that, I bought my first car (Ford Focus Ebony) for myself for valentines day. Come to think of it, all the best presents I've ever had I...

    New here looking for audio advice

    I have a Sony head unit, I replaced both front components and rear coaxail's, they are now better sounding than factory speakers, but to get any decent bass your looking at adding either a sub as noted above, or add some 6x9's on parcel shelf. That's what I have and bass is good enough to do...
