I need help guys ! I was driving today normaly, parked my car and found oil on the front mask of the car. I opened the hood and entire engine was covered with oil and the oil plug on the top of the camshaft was missing :confused: I refiled the oil and got oil plug from Uno fire (does not fit completely, and I have oil leak now, until I get new original one)

Before I take any action, what was the couse of this

Please help :(
 
Left off when topping up with oil !

Nope, I lost it while driving. Could there be a pressure building inside engine, with cold oil ? I have some problems with the thermostat lately. The temperature never goes over 50°C when it's winter time, unless I drive realy slow in the city..
 
hmmmm sounds odd. you checked the crankcase breather pipes? either way if it's not getting up to temperature change the thermostat. 50 is too low.

Yes I've checked the breather pipe and it is breathing. I will change the thermostat.. Could it be anything else ?

Tipo 1.4.i.e
