Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss
Yes I was surprised this has happened at such a low mileage. Yes its 125 on cylinder 4. They haven't said which conrod is bent, they just said they suspect its conrod failure as they haven't stripped the engine. No when I pulled the vehicle over there was no smoke just a loud banging noise. Someone ...

Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss
The mileage is approx 39,000 and it has full service history. Yes it is the original engine.

So as the engine failed just over 12 months after purchase it is down to me to prove it was faulty. Even though it was showing signs of this fault just 4 months after purchase, as the E...

Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss
Have you actually seen the Oil Samples & the “Swarf” in it., are they talking about large particles or small that you have to look at with an Eyeglass or Microscope. How the Hell are you going to prove this is the cause, really they have IMHO passed the Buck back into your Court. It would appea...

Re: 1.2 DIG-T - Oil loss
Yes excessive oil consumption can cause engine parts to wear excessively and swarf can then be left in the oil. What we found was the early engine had a poorly manufactured piston ring set (and some were fitted incorrectly at factory rumours have it) and would allow oil pass and get burnt also ther...
