What is?


The filter what oil was it covered in Jay is asking. Engine oil on the filter is not a good thing :(

Oh right. Sorry Medication I'm on makes me a bit slow. That's my excuses and I am sticking with it. Lol

Ye looks like engine oil. Poss coming up through a breather pipe. But not sure why

sounds like it would be a breather pipe - you can get a little coming up just through normal usage but it shouldn't be excessive

It was bad but it was only in the middle of filter size of my pam but thick enough

replace the filter then monitor - unless you know it has only recently appeared, if that is the case fit a catch tank and see how much is being blown out of the breather, I have had oil come out during spirited driving around corners where the oil slops about more and gets taken up the pipe by the air flow, it might be that a baffle will help keep the oil where it should be.

Have put the cone on to inlet and left the rest of the pipes to see what comes out

Had a good look over the car today and it looks like I need a lot of parts. Engine seems good with all belts replaced


I always find there is something I need most of the time it's just because I want to upgrade it :) 

  • Author

everthing ive checked needs replaced, and the surface rush on everthing, I am going to be busy

today I am going to check the airbag sensors one by one

Best way from what I read most of the time it's just a connector that is lose or damaged.

I have a data cable to usb for the computer. Is there a program I can download


Don't think there is any free ones to use but I'be never looked. I will have a look around later for you mate if I get chance :)

just fixed the airbag light. had to reloom the wires to the passenger seat. it looked like rats had been eating the loom it was bad.

see when I use this Bluetooth scanner to my phone, do I have to connect the connectors that test the car also?  

Shouldn't need to with it being a OBDII but then again you might have to I really am not 100% I would try it :D

Was it the torque pro free trial one you used I've heard people not being able to get that to work but then bought it and worked fine. But might not work still was just checking. 

And found this not sure how good or crap it is but it's free :D

And had a feeling be something like that but least it's another thing to be ticked off :D
