Mk1 vRS Oil Maintenance

Featured Replies

Hi Guys,

My Fabia vRS mk1 had a service 2,000 miles ago. Oil level was at the top of the grid after service. Now the oil is below the grid on empty. Should the fabia be drinking this amount of oil in 2k miles?

Picked up some more oil from the VW dealer and they were saying it's not normal. What are other peoples opinions on this?

How much oil did you put in to bring its level back up to the top of the grid? And what spec oil was used when it was serviced?

Is your sump plug sealed properly? Noticed any oil in or around the engine bay?

only thing i've noticed is round the oil cap is slightly moist, nothing that would cause a loss of oil level.

Just topped oil up, in actual fact it's only taken around 150ml of oil out of a 1litre bottle. I thought it was going to be more.

^ I'd be surprised if that constituted low to full on the dipstick? Can't comment on the vRS but my Felly equates to about 1L. ;)
