As previously mentioned, I've bought my Series 3 for weekend/leisure use and to teach myself some basic vehicle maintenance.
It's a credit to previous owners that, when parked on the flat, it doesn't drop ANY oil at all, remarkable! However, when parked nose down on my sloping drive it does drop a little bit. Gravity and all that I expect. The obvious solution, I hear you cry, is to park it either on the level or, I'm guessing, nose pointing up on my drive.
Where would the oil drip be coming from when nose down and is it anything I should worry about with a 27 year old truck? Forgive my ignorance but I'm trying to learn!
