Dial Emma for Help??

[Haych]

hello, i just got my first citroen the other day a white 4 dr 2.0lt hdi exclusive. been driving it for approx 300 miles when i stopped to check the oil , as you do . Any how the result was what looked like a high oil level, not 100% as maybe residue off the dipstick tube??? So that is one big worry. Only the next thing i noticed is that the dip stick plastic end had broken off down the dip stick tube

So i am at a loss as what to do about either issue , any suggestions, a good diesel mechanic in the Chorley Lancs area would be a help

Please don't laugh too much

Ignore it - this happens quite commonly on these. It will stay in the sump and can't get thrown up as there is a guard there. Citroen stopped bothering to retrieve them as there were so many failures.

The new modified dipstick should resolve this.

Thanks , what about the high oil reading , read on internet could about 5 things if it is diesel. Are you a diesel service person, as i will need this car checked out it has lots of issues, can someone recommend a north west england service garage, that are reasonable

What's your VIN - so I can see what system you have for oil checks?
