    Yet another problem

    This car is gonna probably end up getting an engine rebuild if things continue.... came home from work earler to notice oil on the floor, it is pretty much under the oil filter... climbed under car but could not see where it was coming from had my arm up there having a good feel round and could not feel any damp.... any ideas?

    might be the dip stick, on my 850 the dip stick tube popped out and leaked everwhere including all around the oil filter. it wont drip when its ticking over but will piss out when on the road

    ive just taken it for a run and parked it in a different place, to see if it leaks again... hopefully just a coincedence that the chav down the road who keeps taking it upon himself to park out side my house was there... fingers crossed
