When I first bought my 750 I filled the Pentosin reservoir in-between the screen and the top of the reservoir, the car sat for several days and lost it's sytem pressure. The result was oil all over the floor from the reservoir overflowing due to oil being pushed back into the reservoir.

my 93 740 runs great and doesn't seem to use any oil or coolant, but if I don't drive it for an extended period of time(over 4 days) all of a sudden there is a very small amount of oil and coolant on the garage floor. I haven't had time to look exactly where it is coming from due to my back surgery last week. has anyone heard of this problem. I guess I am at fault for not driving it enough.
