Are there any specific areas to look out for regarding potential faults?
A. • Check for BLOW BY which is oil or smoke being blown out of the dip stick holder when the dip stick is removed. this is a sign of the engine creating pressure from the pistons. • Remove oil filler cap with the engine turned off, using a torch check for signs of milky oil sludge. This is a sign of a blown head gasket leading to water contaminating the oil. If this is seen then have a mechanic do a compression test and a water system pressure test to be certain. Sludge being present is a sign of poor servicing, the engine will need to be flushed several times and both tests above done. It is also advisable to have these tests done as a matter of precaution if at all possible.
