Mine 322 got overfilled at the dealer so I had to drop a boy on it. It does say on the dash indicator.
Could be the cooler or the o rings on the turbo feed leaking also. |

Ash, Mr Craig is located just off the M5 just south of Gloucester……
So a good trip to the Cotswolds might be in order.
It sounds like yours is doing what the 322s used to do before they int ... |

On a 4.4 I would try to get the following done as service items/pr ... |
