hi all!

i've had my picanto lx 1.1 here in the uk for just under 3 months. I cover a lot of distance each day, and it's already got 5,500 miles on the clock.

Today i noticed some oil on the ground under the engine, and it appears that where my gearbox is attached to the engine, there is oil leaking. Has anyone else had this problem? I've not had to top up the oil or anything, it is still full, and has been since i took delivery, so I'm not sure if it's gearbox or engine oil...

i'm guessing i'll be calling the garage to book it in tomorrow morning, but just wondered if this is a common fault, or if i'm just unlucky!

Cheers!

Rob.

Not seen any problems yet, so we'll go with the unlucky option for now :mellow:

well, it's all back from the garage - apparently the oil was coming from my oil filter, so that was replaced, and the oil filter tightened too (was apparnetly slightly loose).

so hopefully all sorted!
