Oh sorry, i have no idea what make it was, i just bought it from a motor factors. The genuine one was only £9 so i'll be using them from now on.

I put in a genuine Land Rover one, it did have a filter from a motor factors in it.

Job done. I have used the car for a few journeys and no oil leaks at all, i'm not sure if it was the breathers or the filter but it's not the pressure relief valve which is good.

I changed the filter for an original Land Rover item, replaced the oil filter housing gasket, removed and flushed out the breathers in the rocker cover and so far everything seems leak free so fingers crossed it's sorted, going on a longer trip tomorrow so if it's all turns bad the next step...

The engine hasn't been run over hot at any point, it is always just around the halfway mark. It isn't weeping oil it's chucking it out. I have no way of testing what the engine oil pressure is and as you know there is no gauge. Today i have changed the oil and filter for a genuine Land Rover...

I'm going to change the oil and filter tomorrow and hope that sorts it, i'll check the breather isn't blocked while i'm at it, there's a breather pipe on the left side of the rocker cover, is this the only one?

The oil level was fine before it threw it out everywhere, it just seems every time i fix one leak it's forced out somewhere else.:(

I appreciate your replies but why are they always so arsey?? I did do a search on the subject but didn't find anything of much use so maybe i'm not searching properly or i'm not as clever as you.

No the filter was only changed recently, i will change it again for a genuine Landrover one and see if that does the trick. Thanks.

I need to remove the oil pressure relief valve, could anyone tell me what's involved and if it's a simple job.

Another new problem on my 2.5 DSE, it had developed an oil leak from the oil cooler pipes where they join the bottom of the filter housing,fixed with new O rings, then oil leaked from the oil filter housing cap,fixed with a new O ring. Now it's leaking from the oil filter housing base!! Could...

No it's definitely the compressor, when i open the bonnet with the car ticking over and put my hand on the compressor i can feel it and can even see moving slightly.

I know there have been a bazillion questions on suspension problems but i can't find a similar one to this. My suspension seems to work fine but when i stop at lights etc the suspension goes up and down slightly plus whilst ticking over the pump has a little judder every minute or 2 or so...

Yes i did my own calculations as the computer was telling me i was doing 29 mpg. Thanks for all the replies.
