Brakes work just fine.

Just to be curious...

It is definently engine oil. There is a spray comming somwhere.

I had the car towed this morning, just to be shure.

I think we should develop a special wave with extended fingers to show how many Vac Pumps we've had (I do realize this may cause confusion with the number of Gear Boxes we may of had also EGR Valves) Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

I'm afraid that I cannot wave with 2 hands without the risk of loss the control of the car.
(just a joke, I have 2 replaced)

Yup - that's definitely it. Good reference photos for others who are worried.

No need to be towed (it doesn't really affect the performance of the brakes) but good to get it fixed. Thumbs Up One that started out as a 2.4 TDCi 110 XS

I drove from the Okovango Delta all the way to Windhoek (1000 km's) with mine spewing oil but it only made a big mess and the oil level drop was negligible.
I still have oil seeping out of my bonnet internals onto my wing tops. Mad

Nice, the dealer has not had the time to look at it yet, but hopefully will later this week.

It still is under warranty but i allways get the shivers when something goes wrong with theese things.

I want to have a proper summer vacation this year and big bills dont fit the picture...
Whistle

But the road assistance was great. Within 30 minutes i had the car towed and driving a Nissan Qashqaijhbhjtf(whatever). I was positively supriced.

Thanks for your info guys n girls. Thumbs Up
