Had a bit of a shocker !
Strange how these things unfolded in between a few drives
Noticed a slightly higher idle a few days ago.
Yesterday I get a steady yellow CEL light.
Needed the car, so spoke to my Indy, read a few posts here , and took a chance that it's a sensor. Had plenty of oil pressure / level. No odd noises.
So today I took a look around engine bay in case of loose hoses .
First thing i noticed was that it was dirtier than usual. Then I see the oil filler tube doesn't appear to be fully attached
I attempt to push it back on, and it comes away in my hands.
Spend ages attempting to reattach, and with pushing and pulling it snaps in half :frustrated:
So I guess that explains the CEL, and the fact that my recent oil top up didn't register much on the gauge.
I expect may be off the road until my Indy can fit me in !
Glad I have plenty of time before Dinslaken!!
Was already booking for an oil change and fitting my new Tandem pump
