Well all good things must come to a end. Being my first 4x4 i thought i would get under the Vitara and have a look spotted a oil leak. Phoned the main dealer took it to them told it was the crankshaft end main bearing cap seal was leaking. Got a phone call 3 days later all done sir. Gave it just over a week longest journey Portsmouth and back and the work run just over a 100 miles. Got back under the Vitara this monday surprise oil leak same place phoned garage now back in for a week. Fingers crossed.
