Apologies for adding to old thread, but seemed best place for a little good news re oil pickup pipe?

My 207, 118k mls Ed30 about to go 2+, and probably a keeper for a couple of years yet???

As a company car from new, and on extended intervals service scheme, (what bollox..!.) And with a slightly "sketchy" service history, I decided to get this potentially major issue resolved.

Over past 3 years has ben run on Shell Helix Ulta 5-40W, changed at 5-6k miles, mostly long runs.

Good news!
Sump found clean and bright, oil pickup appeared to be as clean as new; however already had a new pipe (£35!) so replaced anyway - I don't plan on opening this up again!

Hope this report helps someone prioritise their budget, perhaps better spent than mine?
