Mildred the Micra

Just had a little check over of mildred.... I'm lossing coolant not excessively but it's still going down and I have mayo in the oil cap... however when i put my finger in and feel around the cams there dosnt appear to be any mayo. Hopefully it's just condensation !! :L xx

Someone here (can't remember who) had a stuck pcv valve, which was letting air into the crankcase and condensing in the oil. If I remember rightly

I remember now, it was ryb but he is turbod so there would be positive pressure there for him. Still worth a check, I'd it was stuck open there could be enough low pressure in the crankcase to suck in fresh air over time possibly?

Hi Chloe, hope you’re still rocking this sweet car, was wondering, how much ground clearance do you have at the sills, and how low have you been able to get it and at what ground clearance?
