Default I don't think this is normal...

So I took my D2 in to have my fluids checked after a recent trip out of town.

Everything is still full...

No leaks of any kind anywhere...

I'm kind of surprised after reading about all the leaks they are said to have.

Perhaps you would like to take this job on yourself. The shop manual is a free download. The owner manual says check oil level every 250 miles.

The reason for that is simple, if there is no oil under it there is no oil in it.

Well, jokes aside the Rovers love to leak. It is the automatic underbody anti-corrosion system.

Lol... You referred to me as young man, if you only knew.

No, I know all about Rover's leaking. I'm just surprised that I scored an awesome one. I've had it inspected by three different, unassociated Rover specialists and they all gave her a clean bill of health.

Two of them offered to take her off my hands... My answer was no.
