Hi all.

Notices my oil is a bit low it's just above the "L" mark, so I'm not running it just incase, which oil should I top it up with? I have some Mobil 10w-40 semi-synthetic "super s high performance" oil would I be ok to just top existing up with this?
Also, noticed when i start it abit of Blue smoke comes from exhaust for 3 seconds or so, and if I'm going down a hill I'n 3rd gear say a bit of smoke comes out. Any ideas
Running fmic air filter Decat

 

blue smoke usually indicates your rings are on the way out if im not mistaken

 

How long since you last checked your oil? depends a lot on how quick its used this oil? 10/40 semi is ok for a top up. What did it have put in there at the last oil change?

 

Thanks for replys.

I checked my oil 3 week ago and it was near the "F" now it's just above the "e"
Not sure what oil it was I'n before as I've only had the car 2 -3 months.

 

Then the 10/40 semi will be fine. Any idea how many miles over those 3 weeks? from min to max on the stick isnt a lot of oil. I dont know the exact measurment but its not much more than a litre. probably less

 

100 miles maybe?

Ok thanks for your help really appreciate it, ill top it up with that then.

 

100 miles on 1 litre of oil !!!!!!!!!

 

Think you should be getting more like a 1000 miles to 1 litre.

 

lol come to think of it its been a bit longer since i checked it, and infact ive done over 400miles .

What could be the cause for it using oil?
It stutters when accelerating at about 2.5k revs, and its only boosting to 0.6bar
