We realised why the golf was leaking oil and it seems when we went over a speed hump a couple of weeks ago, the sump was grazed and it is weeping the oil out of the damaged area.
Have since been looking into the legislation and are currently putting a claim in the local council highways section for the damage caused. It would appear that speed humps of the particular type we went over can be a maximum height of 75mm, this one measures at over 100mm!!!
Just look at the damage to the hump!

So be careful peeps, as these buggers are unsuspecting until the damage is done !
