Should my Peugeot's oil drop after service?
I have a peaugeot 2008 petrol puretech did service with 5w-30 TOTAL OIL now after 1 km it went down to 100ml and i had to top it up is this normal or not?
Our answer:
Hi Brian,
Did you do this service yourself and did you also change the oil filter? If the oil filter is changed, it requires more oil to fill it up, so once the work is done and the system topped up, it's customary to idle the engine for a few minutes to let that happen. Then you check the level again and top it up. It should be perfect after that unless there's a leak.
