merry Christmas, i would appear to have oil leaking from my l322 3.0L BMW dipstick. i suspect some kind of pressure build up. the oil and filter was changed a couple of thousand miles ago. any idea anyone.

What about the crankcase breather? Most folk forget to do it, and why BMW upgraded to a vortex type that never needs changing, but the Range Rover never got it. You can fit it though.

Worth a check… could be an easy fix…..

yeah thanks, never new it existed till this morning. i have ordered a new one and washed the old one with brake cleaner which has already showed positive results.

Fit the later BMW unit when you can… never needs changing.
