How much oil in the crankcase now? Usually about 1 quart per cyl is right. Yours = 12

It should be at 3 bar (top bar) all the time, except that while idling in traffic it might drop to 2 bar, then go back up to the top when you get back up to normal speed again.

When you checked the oil on the dipstick, was it low on oil? You DID check the oil, right?

Did the "low oil" orange dash light come on, in the car?

Did you see anything like oil dripping

PS: Will, you were missed on the recent Diesel Drive, up this way, and I hope you can make the next one......
