That should have improved your crank case ventilation.
Expensive repair that.:doh

Asda Fully Sythetic

Asda do a good range of own brand Fully Synthetic Engine Oils bought 5 Litres of Fully Synthetic for my Mini a steal at £19.99.
At this price I can afford to change it more frequently.

CostCo have stopped selling the Chevron Fully Synthetic Oil at my branch it used to be £11.95 for 4 Litres ! I think they sell it in the large drums still.
