It has a little gentle vapour while running, with the cap totally off there's probably a spot of oil every few seconds but not spewing it out and the cap barely lifts at idle. I don't have so much pressure as to have loads of leaks like my b200e did, only a slight weep from the front cam seal. I didn't think I had a bad ring issue but now I'm not so sure. Strange the way it never did any then suddenly started about 1200 miles ago! Also the dipstick doesn't lift itself like my old petrol engine did but I don't know of d24s do this?
I wonder if perhaps my oil has deteriorated and thinned after 7000 miles. I hoped with decent semi-synth I'd last 10000 seeing as dino oil should do 6000 apparently!
