My other son did this with his Aygo, he carried on to work with the light on and engine rattling.
His boss called him a silly sausage (or similar) and took him the the parts shop to get some oil, it had run very low but once topped up ran ok. Still going a year on but it does like a drop of oil now...

Well an update.
New pads and discs, new Febi calipers and new drop links fitted today.




The pads and anti roll bar bushes sent were wrong so the missus got some Delphi pads from GSF, the bushes will have to wait.
I bled the system with my new Sealey pressure bleeder thing, WOW why didn't I buy one of these years ago?

Connect it up, pump it up and open the bleed nipples!

The only thing is I'm not sure how much fluid had to come out but it looked pretty good so I'll leave it at that.

Exactly my thought the first time I used mine. A job that took 30 minutes, often involving 2 people now can be done on my own in 10 minutes.

It really is a game changer!
