Just a quick update...
I spoke to the garage earlier today and I have an impressive mix of leaking oil seals and gaskets in both the engine and gearbox.
So it is definitely engine out time!
Based on my previous chats with them, I fully expected this, especially as I occasionally get the feeling of clutch slip too.
So I've authorised them to do whatever is required to sort this mess out once and for all <
Touch Wood>.
Even though the final bill will be in the eye watering category, it will be well worth it.
As the reality is that even if I had the first clue about fixing engines, I have no where to do the work.
I would also like to travel longer distances with confidence and do a track day at Goodwood.
(And know from my motorcycle racing days that those who leak oil on a race track should burn in hell!
)
Cheers, Paul.
