I have to ask a few relatively obvious questions. When you did the oil change how much oil did you put in? For a full fill with a stock size oil filter it takes 6.3-6.4 qts and with an oversize filter 7 qts. When you checked the oil level and found it to be low was the vehicle parked of a dead level surface or was it nose up even a little? I ask this because a) from personal experience I can affirmatively state that an oil level reading taken with my CRD parked slightly nose up in my driveway will show 1+qt low but parked on a dead level surface it reads full and b) if overfilled with oil the excess oil while, often rather quickly, exit thru the CCV>turbo>CAC hoses and intercooler>intake>combustion chamber where it will disappear.
Thanks for the reply.
Never had this issue for the past 3 years that I have owned it which I did the ORM and just hook it up to a code reader from time to time to see if anything is new.
Want the get GDE program for it.
May do the Elephant hose mod or make a oil trap.
I Had the oil light come on prior to the oil change and it was low on a level surface 2 liters were added to bring it up. I changed the oil and filter with 6 liters oil.
The light only comes on when the engine is around 1/4 mark on the coolant temperature If I rev up the engine it goes out.
And it seems to low on oil again the only thing that I could do is replace the oil pressure sensor to see if the issue clears (maybe acting up when hot). But the oil level is down again as I check. I do have a sensor waiting for me if that is what it could be but it is the lose of oil that is confusing me and the Turbo has no play in it what so ever.
Here is a link to some pics
