Great! Gotta admit I get a grin on my face everytime I fill up and it totals £25:).

Oil will obviously circulate around the engine and if you removed the cap while the engine was under load I would expect to get a face full of oil so yes I would expect oil to come up this far and the 'red rust/dust' you describe should go, the filler cap shouldn't be dry in any case.

I can only tell you what the wife got from constantly doing short runs i.e under 5 miles, school runs/shopping etc. This never really allowed the engine to warm up fully and hence she had problems with the oil. It isn't too much of a problem but it does mean more regular oil changes than the...

Dealer rectified all faults. It was the suspected O-rings which have been replaced and no further coolant leaks. The book+! must have been something to do with the coolant leak as I have had no further recurrance and the dealer didn't detect anything with the testbook. Cruise and...

Hi, I'm new to the forums and have very little mechanical knowledge so please go easy on me. I bought a '96 LPG converted 4.6 HSE Autobiography Range rover last week and while extremely pleased with it I have become a little concerned at a couple of faults. 1. There appears to be coolant...
