Hi All
Having done around 1000 miles since I purchased my 3.6, the oil level gauge has gone from full to around 2/3 full. The car had fresh oil and a filter change done by the dealer before I picked it up.
My questions are how much oil should I put in to top it up but not overfill it, and what oil should I use. I dont know what oil was used when it was changed by the dealer 1000 miles ago.
I've looked on here and rennlist etc but I've struggled to find a straight forward answer on how much oil to top it up with. Also when I put my reg no in to the Halfords site they suggest Mobil 1 for my car. I've got some Mobil 1 in my garage but its probably been on the shelf for 10 years or so. Does oil go off? :dont know:
Although the photo below is not of my car, it shows the level my car is currently showing when cold and on a level surface.
Any help gratefully received from a newbie still learning the ropes!
