...Two Questions   Can i take the Sump off without removing the engine as the Guy who fixed the HG says it will need to be removed the engine....

In principal this is correct… according to Haynes you can get away though with removing the two transmission housing support brackets and the right-hand engine support mount, then slacking the left-hand engine support mount and tilting the engine up and sideways using a hoist (left and right in Haynes are as viewed from the driver’s seat!)

Jay the oil was changed i guess i just have bad luck with this car

I am getting picked up in an hour so it going to be a long trip back Boooooo

Getting my car dropped off at the mechanics and he can deal with it, ill make sure he cleans it all out so i dont have this again.

The oil has been changed  twice next will be the 3rd in 6 months every 5000 miles it gets done.

just shows you can never tell if a 2nd hand car has been looked after which i dont think this has might have to have a good all roud flush and claen out to make sure.
