What engine are you asking about

2011 RR Vogue L322 4.4 72,000 miles, recently purchased, all good apart from no reverse lights ( fuse check tomorrow ) RR owner

There is an oil extraction tube on the 4.4''s fitted to the 322.

It's on the offside front, between the airbox and cylinder head. It's plugged by a small black plastic bayonet at the top of the tube which was presumably where the dipstick would have gone.

Thank you, I will experiment. RR owner

If you have no reversing lights, don’t rule out both bulbs blown.
The elements are very fragile when hot, and slamming the lid breaks them.

Fuse number 12 changed, bingo we have 2 reverse lights ( for the time being )
Don't know what caused the fuse to blow though. RR owner

Hi Everyone... Hope ye might know anything about this..

Is is possible the digital oil gauge can give a false reading?

I had a cracked inlet manifold and was leaking oil.. I've since replaced the 4 of them and I topped up the oil as it was showing low..

Drove it around 250 miles and now its showing min again (I put in 1 litre and it makes 0 difference..


Now I'm afraid to drive it.. Gonna get mechanic to take all oil out and measure it.


(white grey smoke when starting engine that covers the yard 😬... Goes away after 10 seconds... Guessing this was oil in the intake from the leak.

Have you sorted this and if so what was the diagnosis ? RR owner
