Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

Discussions that contain suggestions: 1

0 original-poster resolution reports. Counts can overlap; they are not unique people or a success rate.

0 discussions have direct query context; 0 report a fix in that context. Other evidence may inherit the discussion’s subject.

Got a call at 2:30 saying, "We've cleaned the oil residue off and test driven it (this was about 6 miles judging by the odometer) and we cant fiind any evidence of the leak, so it must be a slow one" I would have thought this would be normal for an RMS failure - what were they expecting?

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Well, it went to the OPC today and I have to say I wasn't impressed from the word go. Considering when I booked it in, I said I have had it pointed out to me by an indie that there was an oil leak in the centre of the join between the engine and box which was suspected to be an RMS failure, they said to me, "Do you need the car tonight in case we need to take the gearbox out? Because if we do, we will need to keep it until tomorrow." WTF did they expect, everyone knows it's a 6 hour job, or at least that's what they charge for. Got a call at 2:30 saying, "We've cleaned the oil residue off and test driven it (this was about 6 miles judging by the odometer) and we cant fiind any evidence of the leak, so it must be a slow one" I would have thought this would be normal for an RMS failure - what were they expecting? They then said, "So what we've done is put some leak detection marker in and we'd like to see the car in 2 weeks to see what's happening." I've never heard or this, does anyone know if this is some sort of dye they add to the oil? and does it effect the oil's performance? I'll update again in a couple of weeks. Migration info.

POST 2Original post

thats pretty sh*tty Stu, really bad form Migration info. Legacy thread was 88428

POST 3Original post

Mind you - at least they didn't just do the job and take the money. We are always quick to complain when they do that. Maybe they are just trying to assess how bad it is? Migration info. Legacy thread was 88576

POST 4Original post

Will they indemnify you if/when you have catasrophic engine failure following the dumping of your engine oil over the nearest motorway ? (on the bright side) Migration info. Legacy thread was 88676

POST 5Original post

FACT: An RMS leak will not lead to catastrophic engine failure! Migration info. Legacy thread was 90114

POST 6Original post

agreed Migration info. Legacy thread was 90132
