Thanks Jon. Have taken it to Porsche in Tonbridge, England. They have told me that its the oil cooler and are replacing it this week. They are also going to flush and clean the cooling system and replace the coolant. All in including the oil cooler its going to cost £785. They said a pressure test might give a false reading like you said so instead of charging me for a useless test they are changing the cooler first of all as this is the least expensive option. As the car has lost about a litre of oil they have said that this is the more likely cause. If it happens again with the new cooler we are looking at a potential cracked cylinder head! Fingers crossed its the oil cooler!

kindest regards
