When I went to start the car last night, it came up as "check oil leve!"l.  :embarassed:
Well I'm glad you know which light it is now. So you dipped it and its between the levels?
yes. did a oil top up last week. this occured just today  :undecided:
think I have had enough of the gti... nothing but problems  :angry: the whole idea behind buying a new car was so I wouldnt have these problems. :angry: :angry:
Im not sure what your saying are you saying its used at least half a ltr of oil in a week, prob much more as it was enough to set off the oil pressure warning. :shocked:

There she blows! :shocked:

oil light hasnt been on again.. just the yellow light just near the 8 on the rev counter. something to do with exhaust management, which can effect the catalyst/coilpack and misfire.

its going in tomorrow anyway.. so let me what they make up say

Hey R32UK -

what happened in the end when you took it to the garage?
Mine just came up and I wasn't going crazy at the time when the light came on and in general a very civilised GTI owner!   :tongue:
Definitely worried me - did you have to leave the car at the garage for a long time?
