Look you have to accept they leak it's a visible sign there is oil in it. If there is no oil leak there is none in it.

Anyway Land Rovers don't leak they are just marking their territory

haha, i dont mind the leaking, im just worried about it running low and messing something else up lol!

its going in the garage again next week to track down where its leaking....again lol

Just get a TOYOTA man!

Even Top Gear proved that it's one of the best and most reliable 4x4's! Land Rover needs just a two things in the toolbox: hammer and a condom. If you can't hit it - then fcuk it!

I feel sorry for you hun you must just have a wrong um, bless my old girl 23 years old Range Rover she doesnt leak from anywhere and to be honest the only time she gets anything done is when she gets serviced and that's ive never had to top up any fluids on her since the day i bought her. I think your just having a really long run of bad luck but look at this way it can only get better

well im currently working on the IOW, and have found out that due to fuel costs (£120 to fill her up) and other people not running 4x4's , that it will be going soon,

im changing for something more frugal and an estate. doesnt have to be mental on fuel (just more than 23MPG which the TD5 does lol)

what kind of MPG does a S2 avant do on a run?

They're a ships anchor as stated previously. Unfortunately if you use it as such and it leaks that much oil, Obama will be upside your head like you're BP!!!!

now its using 1 litre of oil per 300 miles, could it just be the heat or the head gasket going do you think??

its going up for sale in 3 weeks for a BMW 330d sport
