What about a collaboration with life of Tom, he wants to go on track with his Mercedes

You should use an upper case V for Autoalex V2 and make the logo a picture of a V-twin.

I suspected oil starvation would be the cause, the early AJV8 engines pre2000 were known to suffer with oil starvation under track conditions. Jaguars way to fix this was later models had a different dipstick, where the Oil Min level on the revised dipstick was where the Oil Max level was on the original part. Quite a crude bit of engineering 🤣

@AndyK.1 7 ай бұрын

British ingenuity. Cheap fix. No need to take anything apart. 😂. I thought it was only the cars with Milan wheels that got the revised dipstick, but I guess they rolled it out to all

@Thanos.m 7 ай бұрын

Honestly first thing I thought if you're going to track it just extra litre of oil 😂. Although by 02 they'd come out with the 4.2 which was a very solid engine.

@throwback19841 7 ай бұрын

Interesting, my XKR has an engine built in 2001, wonder how much oil it can actually take lol. I put in exactly the specified amount from the manual as I've always been taught that overfilling oil = bad.

@AndyK.1 7 ай бұрын

@@throwback19841 Overfilling is bad, except when the manufacture has calculated it is ok to a point. Fill levels are very variable on these engines. You can’t believe the printed figures.
