My ex-missus once rushed me when i was topping up the oil in my old 3-series ( :sick:) and i ended up leaving the oil cap on top of the block. Got about 30miles from home and on a m-way sliproad noticed black/yellowish smoke coming out of the bonnet and a burning oil smell. Pulled over into the hard shoulder and the oilcap was nowhere to be seen and oil had subsequently been splattered all over the engine bay. Good times!  :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Moral of the story, if your woman is rushing you throw some dirty laundry on the floor to distract her while you do the job properly  :grin:
