hi guys,

sorry stupid question i know, but i have about 6 different bottles of engine oil in the shed and cannot for the life of me remember which one goes in my car.

range rover 2.5 DT.


thanks.
 
oh and i just remembered,

from checking oil level (which was low) i noticed that the dipstick seems to of had a leak.

looks like oil has come out of top of the dipstick tube.
got oil over side of engine and back wall.

any ideas???
 
thanks for those links, found the oil and its going in car now.

but as for that oil coming out from the dipstick tube????
 
i just found something on net.

if the engine oil overheats then could that be the reason why the oil was coming from the dipstick???

uncle never put the coolant cap ack right the other day and it overheated yesterday on the way to oulton park. was on motorway at the time.
 
i hope you didnt fook it by over heating it. hows it rung now? any coolant loss?

nope no loss at all. still have full power. no steam, no smoke, no change in milage.

i was on limited power when it over heated, luckily i was right by a services, was only running hot for about 2 minutes. was filled up and fixed right away, been good eversince. drove the 300 miles back home later that day.

it was all good. oil was only there after it over heated. mechanic noticed it at the oulton track.
