Hi All!

As some of you know in the South Central Region i could not make the meet at the weekend just gone due to having to be in Bromley, Kent for the whole Weekend!

Well every thing was great as Usual on the Journey up! but on the way home last night this happened!! :(

i was coming back from Kent on Sunday night and my oil pressure dropped to Zero while i was Driving at 120mph and the Engine started shuddering!! by the time i could safely pull over on the M3 the engine had made a Loud Bang and then sounds of bit's of Metal comming out from under the car then Totally Dead!! Engine Cut out before i could stop so i lost brakes as well.....

Got out of Car!! loads of Oil and Water,Steam every where!! Huge Pool of Oil under the Car!! Tried to turn over engine!! it turned over but would not start! Looked under the Car and the whole of the Under side was covered in oil and there Are Two hole's in the Sump So i had to call out AA recovery and i i did not get home until 2am!!

So iam am a Bit Pi**ed o*f right now as you could imagine.....

I think the Oil pump packed up or an oil line to one of the Turbos burst!!

No more Meets for quite a while and no more Zed and i am Saving to buy a house for just after Christmas!!!

I can do all the work myself of course as i am a Mechanic but this is still a Very Bad thing to happen and will still cost me dearly :eek:

Thanks for the link! :) I have most of the Part's coming from the USA

Just as a matter of interest. The car I have breaking did exactly the same. It looks to me on the motor "That the bearing picked up "normaly caused by Sh*** oil pressure" or crank wear ..
