Hi guys while on the motorway my car said add 1 litre of oil at next fuel fill up. I pulled over after a mile into the services and when I lifted the bonnet
There was oil every where, passenger side of engine bay all over the wheel + disk and all up the side of the car. Took of the expansion tank cap and there was no pressure and it was full of thick black oil. Can any one advise me to what it might be and possible cost to fix. I haven't had a chance to investigate it but the rac man reckoned
It was the head gasket. Ps the car temperature was at normal temperature all the time and the water light didn't come on.
Ps the cars a w211 e320cdi
Any thoughts would be much appreciated
