It was a casw of stop on a main A road or 30 seconds into an estate so took that option. I forgot I had some big overalls in the back so I'm now a bit warmer

Last time my Land Rover broke down, it did it at the top of the street and I coasted home, all the oil/ign lights on etc - blowing engine oil all over the street and my drive...



Oil cooler -



Whats up with it?

You've got my sympathy, Dan - hope they're not too long...

In the meantime, try this - might be difficult if you are on a smart phone, though

I'm hoping its oil pressure sensor gone, fairly common on corsas so Its just letting the oil straight out, the oil is all down drivers side so it does look like it could be the cause
