Ashamed...

Post by Themoog2 » Sun May 19, 2019 1:34 pm

Yesterday I thought I had better check the engine oil level.
Good job I did as I had to put 2 ltrs of oil today to get the level in the middle of the dipstick marks..
How embarrassing 😳.
Not like me as I'm normally on it.
Feel free to slag me off..

Nah. I suspect more than a few of us have done it at some point. Bring back ‘proper’ oil pressure gauges so you can see anything odd on the gauge such as it dipping when going round corners. It gives a clue that the level might be a tad in need of adding to :D
:ant: Never anthropomorphise computers. They hate that.
