Looks like they knew full well it was totally f*cked and 100% took advantage of a lone woman to shift on a f*cked car.

Quick Google shows the 1.4 engine has a shit head gasket design, causing...................... a huge oil leak.
Quote:This is a VERY common failure on the PSA petrols. The high pressure oil feed gallery to the cylinder head runs up the front corner of the block into the head and the O ring in the head gasket fails with regularity. Result: oil running down front of block (which looks to all the world like a rocker cover gasket failure) and all over the OSF suspension/brake components.
Quote:Very common problem. There is a modified headgasket available from dealers.
No skimming needed.
