  1. Yes, @EnterName. I have checked the oil level before and after the top-up. Before the top-up, the level was in the region c in the diagram @Rooted sent above. After it was on the region b.
  2. Thank you very much for your input. Mostly urban usage with the occasional short trip.
  3. I got a warning for low battery. What type of battery that is? CR2032?
  4. Thanks for the input, guys! Yes, I was gullible enough when I collected the car from service at the dealership they put in the correct quantity of oil and never checked the dipstick. I will not do that mistake again.
  5. I got my brand new my Skoda Superb 2.0 TDi Combi in July 2022 and have been really happy with it. It has now some 18,000 km. Neither me or my missus are "adventurous" drivers, never forcing the engine to any sort of extreme and normally drive close to or under the speed limit. On March 2023, the check oil level warning came on. Never having owned a diesel car before and a brand new for that matter, I figure this could be a normal issue of parts adjusting and arranged a visit to the dealership to have it seen. Upon collecting the car, the mechanic told me that new engines burn a litre of oil every 5,000 km. At the time, the car had some 10,000 km, I figured that was roughly what happened. In May 2023, car had 11,000-ish km and I was booked for service where oil was changed. Now, late October 2023, the check oil level also came on, this time I went to a motor factor and got a litre of 0W20 fully synthetic oil to top up. I was shocked when all the bottle went in! From now on, I will always have a bottle of oil in the car or in the house for the next time the check oil level warning comes on, but I wonder if I should be worried about this. Cheers,
