848 Sump Debris

  1. Just drained the oil on the Corse and was hoping for a nice clean magnet, but this is what I found. Is this normal, not normal but nothing to worry about, worrying: take it to dealer.

    Bike is 2 years old ~8000miles, just out of warranty and had all previous services and work done at main dealers.

  4. I found this attached to the magnet of my MV sump plug Clean otherwise.

    (Not the coin)

  5. oh, that would have me worried.
     
  6. I would forward that image to MV technical and ask if they knew where this could have come from....
     
  7. Nothing to worry about at all
     
  8. Ok so where is it from? Looks like a roll pin for location or security?
     
  9. You should be OK, the magnet is working fine
     
  10. I had bits on mine, under warranty ended up with a new bike!
     
  11. hmm, so on one hand nothing to worry about, on the other its enough to have the bike replaced under warranty...
     
  12. To be fair, they were big bits. Crank bearing circlip had failed on mine, basically it hadn't been inserted correctly, fell out and got mashed into little pieces!
    I wouldn't expect to see anything other than a grey paste with a similar consistency to toothpaste on a magnetic sump plug.
    I would be worried if I had pulled a roll pin out of the sump.
     
  13. Was that at the 600 mile service? I've had two dealer oil changes, so anything like that I'd have expected them to notice.
     
  14. Yes mate, it was my 600 mile service.

  15. 1098R_Fucked.png This is what I found last year when changing the oil on my 1098R. Doh!
     
  16. phuc a duc! I hope that was not the only clue something was amiss!

    oil looks nice and clean though.
     
  17. It was all fine and dandy......... After a 4.5k rebuild.
