I had a viewing for my car today, a chav and his dad basically. Chav kid drove slumped over the wheel, practically licking the windscreen it was that bad.

Now the oil was abit low so i replaced it, when they got there. Now i know hardly anything about engines and i feel they took that into advantage but i want to make sure just in case there is actually something wrong.

He commented that there was air blowing back up out the oil cap when engine running and said was a bad engine etc. So they offered half the price i had advertised because of this so told them to get lost, however after they had left i did the same thing to my brothers Saxo and it does the exact same thing.

So my question is was i trying to be conned? or is there something wrong with both our engines??

Sorry if this is a dumb question but i do not honestly have a clue
