Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

You'd be better checking the owner's manual.

I would leave topping up oil to the dealer at this stage i.e if it's burning oil you're better off not doing your own thing.

www.castrol.co.uk is handy to tell you the oil is you don't have the manual anymore.
