oil keeps appearing on the inlet manifold, each time i wipe it off it comes back which leads to think oil escaping from some where, judging by the shape of the smear its coming out under pressure,
gonna phone my dealer tomorrow to have it looked at

 

That sucks bro. Yes it requires immediate attention.

 

just hope it`s not serious, i have the BMW extended warranty so it`s fully covered but still....

 

Where on the inlet manifold, is it on top or underneath?

 

on the top, the wide sloping part (right side)

 

That is odd, wonder how it got there?

Good thing you have the BMW warranty, my aftermarket warrant doesnt cover oil leaks unless the engine needs removed to repair.

Let us know what the outcome is.

 

it had better be covered, cost me ?58 p/m, ill be stamping me feet if not
