Tyson Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Lol we've told you several times, your yellow oil can light is for low oil level. Now, go check that dip stick! It only illuminates on start up he said, he just wondered what it was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silece2k6 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 It only illuminates on start up he said, he just wondered what it was. Jep Oil Level is on max, After I put 700ml into -.- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dangerous brain Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 DB, what rock have you crawled out from? SupramanUK - He's just trying to yank a few chains with that comment, it's an old-timers in-joke I pop in every now and again to start trouble Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Jep Oil Level is on max, After I put 700ml into -.- When was the last time you checked the level? Putting 3/4 litre could indicate an oil leak or worn seals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian C Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Um, are you getting this light when you start the engine, or is it only on when you turn the ignition on? You do know all the lights are supposed to light up when you key on, as a self-test? They go out when you actually start the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 DIFF OIL - Rear differential oil temp (only on UK spec) So on a UK spec there is no engine oil level warning light? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bignum Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 Also make sure the car is on a level surface and left atleast 12 hours before checking, i know this sounds like common sense but you`d be surprised how many don`t know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silece2k6 Posted March 30, 2011 Author Share Posted March 30, 2011 Ok once and for all Only when the ignition is "on", after I startet, all Lamps were out! BUT I'm asking about, because I have much Oil consumption... at the moment I can't tell you how much, because I refilled yesterday to max. What has strucked me is, when I start the engiene, a great blue cloud cames from the exhaust after that white smoke comes out, because its cold. when the Engiene is on temperature everyhink is fine. but sometimes came a blue clout out, when I approach from traffic lights as example. Maybe the "valve stem seals" are damaged? I hope my english is not so bad :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 31, 2011 Share Posted March 31, 2011 What oil grade are you using as 0W?? I have heard can cause excessive consumption as its too thin. Also do you get any smoke when under boost as this I think is the turbo seals but on start up is the valve stem seals like you mentioned. It could also possibly be worn piston rings.

Silece2k6 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 I do not think the piston rings are through:) What do you mean turbo seal? Drive currently 5W30. Is there a way to check the valve stem seals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silece2k6 Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 Ok, then I will have to change security for the times! How do I get the seals, then? Toyota USA or is there a possibility to order from England? The cylinder head gasket must then still the same new!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
