Hi all,

I can't understand why the oil level indicator sometimes flashes (as empty) and sometimes it has some level, it's different all the time. The dipstick shows it has oil just around minimum level and I topped up just 3 weeks ago. Today it flashed and later this evening it showed 4 zeros. It only started flashing after a 40 mile motorway trip.

There are no obvious oil leaks but haven't checked properly yet, any ideas?
What's the best oil for 206 180?

When you park is it always level ground... the oil level indicator is not the best way to keep track of the actual oil level, always use the dip stick

I'd be more worried about how it went from topped up to minimum oil level in 3 weeks if that was my car.
