hi,
i just got my 3 MPS delivered and as i drive it away, i am wondering why there is no strong pull from the engine. I noticed that the turbo boost is not coming even when i reach 3000 rpm. No engine checklight as well.
So i just drove it to town, revving up to 4000 rpm n 120 km/h.
Feeling something not right, i pop open d engine bonnet and found that the engine oil top up cap is not there. The engine is soaked with lube oil, the bonnet insulation piece is dripping with lube oil. Then i found that the engine oil top up cap lodged between the cables.
I guessed that the mechanic must have not closed d cap properly during the oil change which i asked for before getting delivery of the new car.
i checked the oil level, it is still well above minimum level.
will the engine suffer any damage? how about the turbo because it is not spooling up?
Will the oil damage the paint in the engine bay and seep into the electrical cables & sensors?
I have told the dealer about this and they will tow the car today.
