So the pressure had dropped to barely off Zero over the last week and i knew something was up but i was doing an oil change on the paj which might i say was the easiest i have ever done and i had hoped that would sort it out but on draining the old oil feck all came out like say 2ltrs!
It had been heating up on the temp side again and i topped it up as i have been doing for months as it has a coolant leak of about a ltr a week which i could deal with but on topup this time sludge was evident in the radiator and upon taking of the oil cap there was some gunk on the under side too and the oil level had less than halved.
So mechanics today and he was happy it isn't a quad 3.5ltr and has got it booked into look at properly next week,hoping it's a hairline crack,i don't know.
It was my worse fear but the coolant situation has always bugged me and i was considering selling it on before the end of the year now i may just keep it after it gets sorted,pity it is going through every motion known to poor Paj owners.
