engine oil light came up on my way back, had to stop twice, checked oil level and it was okay. waited like 10 minutes and it was ok then  :shocked:

what can possibly cause it???

Was yours the car that i drove back onto the ramps because the oil pressure light came on as I was backing it off? Get your oil flushed mate or better still have the sump removed and cleaned out (oil pickup pipe too) before you suffer the dreaded blocked oil pickup problem.. its most likely a bit of sludge in your sump.

yeah mate, that was mine. I was thinking to change oil tomorrow as its due after 500 miles

Pop a can of oil flush in and let the engine idle for 10 minutes before you drop the oil out. If you're lucky that's all you'll need to do :afro:

finally arrived back home @ 6pm, still defrosting my feet.

Well what can i say, great day, very happy with the turnout, great to finally put names to faces, had a good laugh.

Big thanks to Nick, Ben and Topher for all there hard work on the rollers, To Ade for helping out with the raffle and getting donations and thanks to everyone that turned up despite the weather. I think everyone that came had a good day

early estimates show the rolling road generated about £500 for charity, £100 from the second raffle and £160 from the first raffle and then all the change that was collected in the buckets. So hoping the final figure will be around the £800 mark.

The people from the charity even popped down to see what we was doing and then themselves wanted to say a big thanks to everyone.

THANKS

Just found out we raised £1040 today with the rolling road, raffle and donations. + we also decided to give the £50 currys voucher to the charity so they could buy something to go in there centre. There is still all the coppers to count up aswell but think Nick is going to take these to an asda and use the change machine.

So well done to everyone sure the charity will appreciate all our efforts.

Got about 54 pictures on my camera to upload which i will do tomorrow.

My power figures 206bhp & 226 lb/ft torque. What i expected but i know theres more to come once the uprated actuator spring is installed. So expect more from my car at the next RR day.
