I have done a service to the car last month , and one day by luck i decied to check the oil level i found that theres only 1 Litr still in the engine i got SHOCKED, so right away i went to the nearest gas station and i change the oil ( mobile one ) the usual oil i use even in the service they use it , so everything went ok for one week then TODAY i checked the oil level i found theres only 1 Litr still in the engin .
WEIRD isnt . any sugges how to fix this problem

How do you know that there is only 1 litre in there ?

The difference between the top mark and the bottom mark on the dipstick is usually about 1 litre. IT should only need topping up if the level drops below the bottom mark

which engine do you have in it??

If its the 2.0 TDI search this forum as theres a ongoing issue where it drinks it like no tommrrow.

i have the 2.0 petrol and my oil does not move, even after 10k miles its in the same place...

Just wondering if this could be a factor?? whats the outside temp where you are???

also what MPG are you getting?? or how many miles off a full tank??

I think that if you only had 1 litre of oil in your car the engine would seize as there wont be enough to lube the engine and your oil light would come on. Normal oil capacity in my 1.8t is about 4.5 litres
Does your oil level or oil pressure light come on

 

[capsoula]

the average temp here 35c to 45c
and a full tank gose up to 400 km
the oil light dosent come up

 

[RickT]

400 KM is only 248 miles... i get at least 400 - 450 urban off a full tank, which is 725KM,.,, and i use 97 octane or 98 or 99....

however the outside temp here is only about 18'c at the moment so the aircon is not working too hard!!

However if i drive mine really hard i can see it drinking that amount of fuel?

however something does not sound right...

i forget to tell you thats traffic is so hard here , you can stuck on the traffic more hten 2 hours here , i think thats the resone why. plus i use 95 octan should i start to use 98 octan , u think will not b a problem change the gas type?

 

[RickT]

no it would not be an issue... i used 97, or 98.. try for 98 all the time as the car runs so much better on it!!
