smoke on start up normal and intermitant.

Oil change is simple- just follow the DIY's on here.

I would guess you may have a level sensor error, its a fairly common fault.

If me I wouldn't turn back , dealer has ability to read codes and replace parts if needed under warranty , clear codes etc. the no dipstick issue with this motor s..ks, very inadequate .
As far as driving there I think you said you tried launch control , and running in three digit #'s
so , and for the cost a few bucks for peace of mind well spent.

agreed ... i just hope nothing else is wrong, even if to be replaced by warranty i just got this car, having it gone for a week or two is not my ideal scenario

An anxious time no doubt , for many here patience has been needed with
various issues , most all feel the reward of ownership worth the challenge
your car will be back to you sorted promptly is my bet.

if i lived in the US or Europe have issues under warranty would not be a big deal as i know those dealers are much more professional and equipped then the dealers we have locally here in Saudi Arabia

i hope in the end, nothing is wrong even if under warranty and all i needed was an oil change done properly after being flushed in full

Good luck....keep us posted.

Let's hope the Pdealer resolves this issue for you, once and for all. Nothing worse then all this inconvenience when you really want to be spending time driving it. Good luck.

I am trying to give you guys an update but for some reason the picture is not coming in the message. I already uploaded it from my device to my albums but then when I push "insert" it says you need to upload your image first. Can it be because I have a free account?


Basically the dealer before flushing measured my oil and it read 7.4 liters. I am sure I was over as I had already vacuumed out 1 liter a few days before and I also really pushed the car and did launch controls and etc.


Anyway the dealer measured the level after putting in the 6 bottles I gave him and he got a reading of 6 liters. When I picked it up there was a red warning sign saying below minimum. The dealer told me since your work is only 6 km from here and you have your oil there just put the oil when you get there. So I started by putting little by little and ended up putting the entire 7th bottle as each time I checked it still said below minimum.


After putting the entire 7th bottle I now have green but only 1 above the range so I guess I am at 2. How much more should I fill to get to 4/5? Half a liter or less?

100CC and drive it a day.

Don't put in 1/2 liter all at once. As Peter (Trackcar) says above, only add 100ml at a time, drive for a while, then recheck. 1/2 liter can take you from where you are now to overfill all at one time.

R.Deacon

I do 200ml at a time
it's really a learning curve with a cliff

Just listen to Peter and Mike.

Hi guys,

I'm trying to follow OPs instructions however I can't seem to hit oil. Oil temp warmed to 160, same devices he purchased, but I can't seem to wiggle the tube it to hit any oil. Any thoughts on this?

I should add that I seem to be hitting something blocking me from going further down. Once I hit this "blocker" and pull the tube out, there's not even any oil on the tip of it. Also, the oil cap is completely clean and has no oil residue on it. Somehow I think something is blocking it...

With the oil up to temp and the engine running shut the car off and immediately open the oil filler. Insert the hose and rotate It CW or CCW I've found it works both ways. You'll hit a resistance point. That's what you need to get past. Just keep rotating the hose and you will get beyond that point and the hose will continue to go into the filler tube. Note: if you leave the hose at the first resistance point for about 15 seconds the heat will soften the hose and allow it to go in easier.

Once you get the hose in and strike oil it's a good idea to put a piece of tape around the hose at the filler opening. Makes it easier next time as you will have a reference point.

Good luck.
