Polo 6r engine oil error?
Hello,
I have some questions about my vehicle: VW Polo 6r 1.4 TDI 2012
- I've had my car since August 1, 2021. The last oil change was on July 8, 2021. Today, just for fun, I checked the oil level and noticed that the oil was actually empty; only the first few millimeters of the dipstick were wet. How can that be? The oil light should be on by default! I mean, how could the car have used all that oil in 3.5 months? Anyway, I've just topped up the oil again and will document the usage weekly.
- Today when I gave the car full throttle while stationary, water came out of the exhaust like a half-turned tap. Is that normal?
1. Ideally, only too little was filled. DIe oil lamp does not necessarily have to shine because the polo probably has no oil level control. That the oil lamp only shines at too low oil pressure.
To 2.: If the car is moved only on a short distance, a lot of water collects in the exhaust, which comes out with corresponding G
Can considerable damage be caused by driving with little engine oil?
at point two you were right at the moment only short distance
That was after filling the oil wanted to see how the engine block behaves that was pure coincidence with the exhaust my buddy meant to see if smoke comes out
You should not give full gas in a cold engine, too…. It’s probably just a short distance moving the thing.
Okay thanks and yes at the moment (4 days)
