Oil leak.

I had a huge oil leak yesterday, it all shot out the front. Parked immediately and shut down to save the motor .

Oil Cooler or line fail suspected.

2000 XKR Convertible.

Anyone else experience this?

Thanks.

Hello, Johnny,

Welcome to the Forums.

Marking their territory, is the most common reason.

The crew in the XK8/XKR (X100) Tech Section will know the cause.

Good luck.
