I don't think they tell you oil is low. Relies on owner checking weekly... Gone to a good home: 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue SE Buckingham Blue with Ivory and clear glass = "Rory"

I thought they did, seems weird they tell you of low fluid in the coolant, washers & brake fluid, yet you have an electronic dip stick and they don't tell you of low engine oil... Pete

All back together, no leaks from anywhere and it runs 100% so looks like whatever caused it... faulty part, bolt or spanner work hasn't done any lasting damage...

Actually had to take the rack 99% of the way out anyway, both trackrods off, pipes off, column off and then unbolted it and laid it down, it's at the bottom of the last pic, it should be vertical in front of the front pump... could have pulled it out but there was then enough room to get the drill in to sort the broken bolt...
