Hi car came with a new one, I will post a pic this afternoon though to make sure.What is your dipstick like? The end could be broken off that is why I am asking. Post a picture of it.
.....Stop sniggering at the back.....
Thanks, I'll look at that, but I didn't see any oil on top part of engine.Any chance the oil fill pipe behind the service flap has been dislodged
Cheers Spike
Here you goThe bit I would like to see is the end that shows the oil level.
Car came with a broken dipstick and this new one in the boot, so maybe it has been over filled in the past, but surely you would know that if dipstick was broken, don't overfill it! ?Oil level is good and not overfilled. May have been in the past though especially if the dipstick was broken. Give the engine area a good clean with an engine degreaser and wash off. Oil feed pipe to the turbo may be leaking. You really need to fit that bracket - if you can find one.
All cleaned up, hopefully your right ?I sounds normal to me. Turbos do not have seals, just oil flingers to keep oil away from where you would expect a seal. So turbos leak oil into the induction pipes. Providing it is just wet and oil level isn't dropping it should be fine.
As advised on your other thread clean up and see if the oil continues to leak out of the pipe.
