Hi All

 

Just a quickie as I am knee deep in oil and slime at the moment! Just took the oil sump off my gal to check the pick up and found several fragments of broken metal in the sump itself? Just wondering what this could be off? The pick up is as clear as anything. The car has been making a grating/clunking noise for a while now, which has gradually worsened. Thought it was the water pump on the way out, but no leaks from that. Thought it could be the oil pick up clogged up, hence the checks today. Any help would be greatly appreciated as to where these metal fragments could have came from!

 

Thanks in advance

 

Kind regards

Ah, problem solved! It wasn't pieces of metal, it was hardened gasket that had fell into the sump! Must have been from the previous owner!

 

Thanks anyways!!

 

regards,

 

Peter
