two strange problems
Hello,
I have 2 problems with my Disco 3, first, sometimes there is a little bit of oil above mine front bumper license plate, it is not much, when I feel behind the bumper it is dry
I have marker the place on the picture.
The second one, in some places from the front bumper, release the paint, are there more people with this problem, and how do you fixed that.
Sorry for my not so good english.
Kind regards,
Marco

There shoulsn't be oil there unless the air con is leaking! Since you believe that's OK the only other possibility I can think of is that its something other than oil. Unless of course you were too generous when lubricating the bonnet lock yµ (idµ - eAµ) ψ=mψ

But the bonnet locks are each side, not in the middle There has to be a reason for this, unless someone is deliberately squirting oil on your vehicle Are you sure there is no sign of leakage from items behind the bumper ? i.e. Air con condenser, intercooler etc.D3 owned from new, P017 brake recall, BAS FBHIC, new FBH, LR013487 oil pump, new water pump.

Hello,
Go check it again tonight, maybe oil is not the right definition, but it is a little bit greasy?(vettig in het dutch)
Kind regards,
