Many thanks for your input, guys......

FJP in PA Yes, I had wondered about one of the blowers being faulty. Perhaps that could explain why there is no hot air flowing through the left hand side air vent? I'll mention this to the garage in the morning.

thom4782 I'll check under the rear boot carpet in the morning when it's light to see if there has been a coolant leak from the coolant tank.

bam914 Ditto.....will check this out in the morning. If the oil is looking more like chocolate milk shake than engine oil, what does this indicate? Do I have to stop using chocolate sprinkles on my cappuccino? No, seriously, could this mean coolant is somehow leaking into the engine and, if so, what are the usual causes and remedies?

I'll feed back to you all tomorrow when I've had the chance to investigate further.

Meanwhile, thank you for getting back to me so quickly. It really is appreciated. I probably wont enjoy the process but if I want to enjoy driving the car then I have to deal with the realities of her needs.
