oil level help!

**portlandgrey** · 11-08-2010, 01:15 AM

Guys, my cars has been showing +.9 on the display, dropping to +0.8 following a run across france.

The car was dropped off at the dealer & they have added 0.8l of oil.

I queried this & mentioned to the service manager that +0.8 does not mean add oil, it means its full (ish).

He checked with a tech who said they don't take any notice of the dash display & connect it to the diagnostic to get an accurate reading.

I am concerned that i now have an extra litre of oil in the car & don't want to risk damage, is there any way of checking that this is correct?

Strangley, the dash still says +0.8!

The dealer concerned has fed me bullshit over the past week while car has been with them & do not inspire confidence.

There is only one other CSL on the island & i'm not sure they are familiar with the cars.
