Well fingers crossed the small split I've found in the hose is the cause, found this morning.
The main stealers wanted 24 hours to get one in, and all I could find was a used one with MOCOM in North Weald.

Nice easy fix then Rob

Lady can be a compassionate mistress after all

I take it you're aware of the oil change procedure for a Scooby?

Fully synth oil. Pre-fill the new filter before fitting. Disconnect crank sensor and crank the oil pressure up before starting. All good fun

@Gerry, yes thanks, I've been warned about some horror stories of people not doing either of those, and then trashing the engine

Fingers crossed I won't be on here tomorrow night asking for a new engine!

They certainly are different to work on compared with BMWs Stu, I'll give you that!
The E30's, 34's,36's and E46's are all fairly predictable, but the Scoob's given me a few new things to consider! As Gerry says, all good fun
