Ok. Andrew never ceases to amaze with his MINI tech knowledge, so, the question begs to be asked, Oracle or Not. Vote with your fingers Australians

He knows more than me about the mechanics (not difficult) so I'll give this a big 'yes' vote

You get a big Yes for the M2 tech stuff (which isn't in question). Thanks mate

I'll just slide off elsewhere

I had to give him a NO! Mainly because an oracle would hardly lick the underside of a MINI bonnet! An oracle would've known it would taste bad!

Where's Andrew ... I need him to tell what an oracle is before I can vote. Do I need a torx screw, or just a regular screwdriver to get access to my oracle?

I had to vote YES.................he picked the gunk in my water

........ I think I'll reword that. Andrew identified that my overheating problem last week was more than just that......he correctly suspected a blown head gasket.

I think you'll find it in your tool box next to your spanners................or is it a spanner?

I thought an oracle was a kind of whale?

You cheeky little bugger Simon

I actually got sent a techie question about a cooper auto transmission this morning by a fellow US M2'er

Ummm well it's a CVT, it's different from the S auto, doesn't have gear ratios per say, if problems persist consult your service department

don't know if he knows everything about the car...but I think he had a sort of glowing tinge around his head after he started licking my bonnet...kind-of oracle-like...(you don't look much like an old african american lady to me though...

)

I'm getting that checked out, andrew...so when they replace the liner, I'll get them to pack it 'to go' for you, so I can bring it to you to keep for further consumption...

Oh you all think your soooooooo funny

<------- I'm embarrassed for all of you

Any more consumption of that stuff and I probably will end up looking like an old african american lady
