Beware - some of the above info is incorrect... all Mk2 Scouts and 4x4's had DPF's, even older PD140 ones, as they were fitted with the BMM 8v engine and not the 16v one without DPF fitted to other variants.

You live an learn 👍

Well, today has been an interesting day.

Collected my, new to me, Scout and when I got home, about 14 miles, someone knocked on my front door to tell me there was a wet patch under the front of the car.

Aaahhh. What the heck.

OIL!!

I cleaned and checked the dipstick and it was DRY!!

Called the garage and it is getting taken back first thing tomorrow.

Plus the Bolero panel has gone blank. Nothing at all. I'll do some digging.

Bugger, was the oil warning light showing on the drive home?
