Anybody recommend a garage?

[Bigfoot]

For my 12 year old Shogun Sport. Had it back and forth to my local garage countless times for an oil leak, they just can't find it, fuckin sick of it now, cost a fortune this last year, the outside of me house looks like a fuckin tankers ran aground. Any help appreciated. Preferably someone who specialises in 4x4 or similar. Cheers

rather than the whole engine covered in oil trying to find it, degreaser and a jet wash, drive for a bit and the oil will appear where the leak is. Simple job. Fixing it may not be depending which seal/gasket it is.

Drill a hole in it, and then when it starts leaking you can easily find it.

Crack an egg into the engine iirc

Don't think I haven't thought about it mate.

You'd f***ing think so like, but the garage keep doing this and it keeps coming back, need to try someone else.

You paid them to fix a leak they didn’t fix and more than once?

Les Potts, Leechmere Industrial estate. Do a lot of problem 4x4 type vehicles that are passed on from other garages that can't sort them out.

Don't think they limit themselves to Land/Range Rovers

Mitsubishi garage. They built it, so should have a basic understanding of how they go together.
