Dear All
Having travelled approx 400 miles since I last checked the dip stick oil level was at Max, I am concerned that the level is exactly half way between Max and min. . I do not know the quantity used as I have yet to buy oil (that's the next confusion). I also have no prior knowledge of the consumption as I have only owned the car for 3 weeks . Does this strike anyone as indicating a problem, I have never needed to take oil with me on a long road trip before but this car seems to require me to do so.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Best regards
Tedfred
