Wife is looking at a fiat multipla as a second car. Before you start sniggering, we ran one up to a coupla months ago as a work car, and it never missed a beat over 3 years (apart from the suspension recall, a known fault).
She picked one out to look at, but on giving it a going over, I removed the oil filler cap as a rudimentary check, with the enging running, and was greeted with lots of pressure. I know this is a walk- away moment on a petrol engine, but is this something diesels do? My e320cdi never did, so I wondered if its specific to certain engines and acceptable behaviour, or a total no no for any car.
What do you reckon?
