So, did the most half arsed oil change ever this morning...
Didn't warm it up in the hope that the oil wouldn't run everywhere when I pulled the filter off. Used a manual suction tool to pump the oil out of the dipstick tube which actually worked far better than I expected, but used considerable time and effort lol. Then removed the filter and my lack of warming up didn't really work lol, turned out there was still a lot above the filter...great. Fortunately I put an old box under it to catch any 'drips' which turned out to be runs...but at least it was one less oil on the floor!
Oh and on that note, turns out I overfilled the PAS fluid the other day, dry steering without the engine running (tyre check) managed to blow 'some' out of the res cap this morning which ran through the pulleys and along the wishbone so ended up in many places on the floor...ideal...
Long shot I know but does anyone have/know of a single Nangkang Ultra in 205 40 17 XL or a pair of another make in the same size? Pretty sure it's gotta be that inner wall cut that's losing air but cant afford a new one.
