I'll come clean - I did have a new RMS before the warranty expired (at about 50,000 miles) and it was less than 5 mnths later that another OPC said I needed a new RMS (but of course they weren't trying to profit from the warranty I'm sure) :wink:

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

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.

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

  • 911uk: 1 discussions

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 0 adjusted by outcome qualification.

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

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Couldn't resist it... :wink: :twisted: Really, it's not!!! Despite an OPC saying 2 years and 35,000 miles ago that I would need to do it at my own expense before they would renew a lapsed warranty! Hasn't used a drop of oil in the last 11,000 miles and no drips on the road 91,911 miles today :twisted:

POST 3Original post

'91,911 miles today' 8) Shock - Horror .. surely not .. :wink: Mine was reported as 'leaking' approx 6,000 miles ago but not a drop of oil on the garage floor or a change in level since :?

POST 4Original post

Wattie, sincerely hope that you are not tempting fate with this thread!!! :shock:

POST 5Original post

just had mine serviced and told no rms leak.... has used 3/4l of oil in 1 year for 6000miles. Does that sound right? Just renewed warranty...so fingers crossed...o its a '99 c4 tip

POST 9Original post

Done 3k in 6 months without adding a drop to mine. But it had a new engine so the engine has only done 14k now. However, the rest of the car has now done nearly 75k

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
