Morning.
Just discovered a very large oil leak on a 2.0 XEDI 1999 L series.
Driven yesterday for 40 miles fine.
This morning no oil on drive, started vehicle to warm up noticed about 500mls of oil on drive. Checked oil levels and topped up.
Drove again this morning for 15 miles and on stopping oil is piddling out from the plastic guard over sump, oily spray back on tail gate.
Limped home further 15 miles and on arrival home lots more oil and oil light starting to flicker on. Oil had now started to appear inside the engine bay.
Car still running fine coolant as normal no overheating or strange noises.
Just about to get underneath to have a better look.
Has this happened to anyone else or does anyone have any ideas please?
Many thanks
Andy
