just been reading up on electronic dipsticks.. seems the 4.4tdv8 has a process..
with bonnet open, ignition on, press cruise cancel twice to enter service mode, this shows the *actual* level.. top up as necessary.. press and hold the cancel button for more than 5 seconds then close the bonnet and turn off ignition to exit service mode. screen now shows an 'average' oil level
is this right? or just for certain cars with this engine? pressing cancel appears to do bugger all for me
Not heard of that. I just follow the process in the manual and I thought it showed the level. What good is an average level and what use is it.
