Hi,
any info would be helpful on this problem
I have a 2.0 hdi RCZ which has covered 46k and had a replacement cambelt fitted around 4 weeks ago. About a weeks ago when driving I got a check engine oil level warning and when I arrived home checked the dipstick which appeared to show that it was less than half full of oil. I topped it up and it took 2.5 litres to reach the full mark. at the time I thought it strange as it had only recently had a full oil change but I thought that perhaps the amount that was put in at the garage was maybe incorrect. Anyway, driving home from work again on friday, the low oil warning light came on again just as I was about to pull onto my drive. I pulled the dipstick out and it is virtually empty of oil. Then I noticed lots of oil all over the alternator, belts, expansion bottle and pooled around the bottom of the inside body work. car is running perfectly, Not burning oil, has been maintained regardless of cost and makes no unusual noises etc. But it is obvious that a major oil leak has developed, but from where? any ideas anyone.
